Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of WMF Captain's Glass Wine Decanter
Customer Review: Good, inexpensive decanter
Summary: 4 Stars
Considering that exposure to the air is the primary purpose of a decanter, then it would be difficult to find another decanter that does this job more efficiently. The design allows for a standard bottle of wine (750ml) to be spread out along the entire, very wide bottom of the decanter (rising less than an inch in the vessel), giving the wine maximum surface area to interact with the air. In addition, the opening of the decanter seems to be much wider than other decanters, allowing for more air to enter into the vessel than most. Other reviews mention that it is a bit heavy (especially w/ wine in it) and that it may be a tad awkward to pour, but this has not posed a problem for me--the weight may be a function of the thickness/sturdiness of the glass itself, a plus. Another advantage is that it will likely never tip over. One last note on the design--it is appealing, and the mother-in-law assumed it was a flower vase at first glance. Overall, an excellent decanter, especially considering the price--a good value.
Description of WMF Captain's Glass Wine Decanter
Allow full-bodied wines to develop their full aroma by pouring them into a carafe. With this so-called decanting, the wine flows generously into the decanter or carafe and is enriched with oxygen. The bellied form provides the wine enough surface to further absorb oxygen. Owing to the slim neck the air can circulate restrainedly allowing the wine to retain its bouquet. This decanter has a bevelled opening through which the wine can be poured out into a glass without dripping. Holds one bottle of wine and is made of sturdy, light-weight glass.Showcase favorite vintages with this functional and attractive decanter. Standing 9 inches tall, this flask widens from a narrow neck to a 9-inch base, creating plenty of surface area for wines to breathe better. The decanter is lightweight and clear, so guests can enjoy the rich colors of wine at the table, and features a beveled pouring edge for fewer drips. A sure conversation piece, the decanter is also sturdy and doesn't tip over, even on the high seas. Easy to fill, it holds one bottle of wine. For cleaning, use hot soapy water and a long-handled brush. --Emily Bedard
