Eisch Swarovski Crystal Duck DecanterSKU: 702.15
With NO DROP EFFECT©, the Eisch glass factory now for the first time utilizes this effect for consumer glassware: It is employed to avoid undesirable drops when pouring drinks from carafes and duck decanters. Who is not familiar with this: After pouring, drops of red wine run down the outside of the decanting carafe, and leave ugly stains on the tablecloth or on the vessel itself. With the NO DROP EFFECT©, this is a thing of the past. Already when wine is poured, the NO DROP EFFECT© almost completely prevents the formation of drops at the rim of the glass. As a result, no drops of red wine will run down the outside of the carafe. This guarantees perfect stain protection of vessel and tablecloth! The NO DROP EFFECT© is based on a special treatment of the glass surface which permanently prevents drops from running down the outside of carafes and duck decanters.
Height: 162mm
Capacity: 0.75 Liter
Please note that this product is hand made with blown glass, the item will not have the consistent thickness of a machine molded item.
Wine Information and FAQ's
Wine Decanter - what are they all about?
Wine decanters can be key to truly enjoying wine. Many times people are confused about how and when to use a decanter.
What is the main purpose of a decanter?
A wine decanter allows oxygen to make contact with the wine coming from a bottle. As red wine and oxygen meet it "oxygenates" the wine. Effectively, this is the same as quickly aging wine. If you haven't used a decanter before then we suggest pouring most of the wine in the decanter but leave some in the bottle. After 30 or so, taste the two of them you should notice a big difference.
What are the best wine decanters?
The best decanter is one that allows maximum mixing of wine and oxygen. After that you should go with looks. There are many different styles of decanters so find one that matches your taste. Many other sources of wine information are available online.
Is there different decanters for different wines?
No. The main difference between decanters is their style and how effectively they oxygenate the wine.
What is an wine aerator and how does it work with a decanter?
The entire purpose of a wine aerator is to oxygenate tough and tannic wines. Aerating simply spreads the wine as far as possible to provide maximum contact of liquid with the air. This speeds the highly beneficial effect of aeration on young and tannic wines making them more open and accessible to the palate. Combined with a decanter an aerator will enliven the youngest and toughest of wines in your cellar.
How fast does a decanter age wine?
A good rule of thumb is for every 20 minutes in a decanter the red red wine ages the same as one year in the bottle. |
