ABOUT THIS DECANTER
This Riedel Ayam Decanter Black Stripe takes its name from the world's most exclusive and coveted breed of hen, indigenous to Indonesia. The elegant and impressive appearance of the Ayam hen inspired Maximilian J. Riedel, 11th generation CEO & president of Riedel Crystal, to create this groundbreaking and functional design.
This impressive decanter combines outstanding functionality in a stunning visual statement. Th Riedel Ayam Decanter Black Stripe is a decanter with a dual decanter function, meaning the wine is aerated both when it is poured into and also from the decanter, reducing the time usually needed to "open up" the wine. The intensity of the oxygenation process can be heard by the gurgling sound produced when wine poured into and from the decanter.
The decanter's most stunning innovation lies in the cleverly designed shape of the Ayam, which was created not only to stand on the table, but also to hang from it! Hand-crafted and mouth-blown in the company's glass-works in Kufstein, Austria, this crystal glass Riedel Ayam Decanter Black Stripe is ideal for younger red and white wines.
Riedel Decanters...
RIEDEL WHOLE-HEARTEDLY BELIEVES ALL WINES - YOUNG AND OLD, RED, WHITE OR SPARKLING - CAN BE ENHANCED BY DECANTING.
There are two reasons why we decant wines:
-
Decant an older wine to separate it from its sediment.
-
Decant a younger wine to increase aeration, revealing more complexity, and opening up aromas and flavours.
On the palate, decanted wine expresses higher levels of fruit in red wines and tends to integrate and smooth out tannins.
We offer a wide range of elegant machine-blown and extravagant hand-made decanters to honour good wines with the treatment they deserve.
Every hand-made product is crafted by highly talented master glass blowers, using glass making techniques which date back more than 2000 years.
All decanters are made from crystal glass suitable for every lifestyle and available at every price range.
Every single decanter is a must-have for wine lovers.
