Wine Carafes and Decanters: Aerate and Reveal

Decanting a wine means giving it time to breathe before it offers you its best. Our lead-free crystal carafes combine a wide base, for good oxygenation, with a slim neck, to pour without losing a drop. Some shapes, like Orpheus or Aurora, are designed to adorn the table as much as to serve the wine.

Decanter or carafe: what's the difference?

A wine decanter (also called a decanting carafe) separates the wine from its sediment while aerating it, thanks to its flared bottom. Our models are made of lead-free crystal, for a sturdy yet brilliant finish. Capacity from 1.2 to 1.8 L depending on the models.

From everyday use to collector's item

Our models at €45 (Ligna, Néora, Rays, Solen, Veloce, Éra) cover everyday use. The most elaborate finishes, with gilded patterns or a rotating base (Aurora, Majesté, Orphée II), are more like a permanent display piece for your sideboard. Also find our wine glasses to complete your set, or our sommelier gift sets for a ready-to-use gift.

Frequently asked questions about wine carafes

How to clean a wine carafe without damaging it?
Rinse with lukewarm water immediately after use. For stubborn red wine deposits, a little coarse salt with hot water, gently shaken and then rinsed, usually does the trick. Avoid brushes that are too stiff.
How to dry a wine carafe?
Turn it upside down on a carafe dryer, or on an inverted stemmed glass. Avoid leaving it upright with water at the bottom, as this leaves marks. A lint-free microfiber cloth is sufficient for exterior finishes.
How long should a red wine be decanted?
A young, tannic red benefits from opening up for 1 to 2 hours. An old vintage with sediment: 30 minutes is enough to preserve its more fragile aromas. White and rosé wines generally do not need to be decanted.
