The Performance Decanter is designed for optimal oxygen interaction without unnecessary complexity.
- Wide base: increases the contact surface between wine and oxygen.
- Targeted pouring spout: ensures controlled and drip-free pouring.
- Elegant, dynamic shape: inspired by the lines of the Performance glasses.
- Suitable for young and aged wines: supports both power and finesse.
Its shape allows wine to breathe quickly without losing its character.
The decanter has a capacity of approximately 1.040 liters, ample for a standard 0.75-liter bottle with extra space for oxygen development. This volume prevents overflow and provides sufficient room for the wine to breathe.
For young red wines, the wide base helps soften tannins. For older wines, careful decanting separates any sediment.
The Performance Decanter is crafted as premium machine-made crystal glass.
- Advanced production process: ensures thin glass walls with high structural stability.
- Clear crystal glass: optimal presentation of color and clarity.
- Lightweight yet sturdy: balance between elegance and durability.
- Consistent quality: precise shape and finish.
- Dishwasher safe: suitable for practical use.
Premium machine-made means the decanter is produced by machine with the same design philosophy as handmade models, but with consistent precision and durability.
The wide base allows powerful wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, or young Bordeaux blends to open up faster. Full-bodied white wines aged in oak also benefit from extra oxygen contact. The ergonomic shape ensures stable pouring and controlled oxidation.
