Overview
A dinner table or bar cart is where this Riedel decanter belongs, as the rounded apple shape suits both. It is machine-blown, lead-free crystal in a clear finish.
The shape follows New York fashion, with a stylish form that the maker likens to a little black dress for the table. It can be repurposed for different wines. A larger Big Apple version exists, and this one is the standard size.
Who it's for
Wine drinkers who decant a standard bottle and want an easy-to-clean, rounded decanter. Those hosting large pours or wanting a hand-blown piece should look at a larger or different style.
Pros and cons
- Rounded apple shape
- Room for a standard bottle
- Not a drinking glass
- Larger Big Apple version exists
- Machine blown, not hand blown
Performance notes
The wide, rounded body gives wine a large surface to meet air, which is the mechanism of decanting. Machine-blown crystal makes the walls consistent, and the dishwasher-safe rating eases cleanup. Capacity exceeds a standard bottle, so a full pour does not fill it to the brim.
