The machine-made decanter distinguishes by an elegant and complex design. Riedel whole-heartedly believes all wines - young and old, red, white or sparkling - can be enhanced by decanting. Riedel tip: Use bottle cleaners to remove stains inside the decanter.

Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any older red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It's machine blown of brilliant 2crystal and conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin walled. It holds 64 ounces, ample for two 750-milliliter bottles of wine, and measures 11 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends that the decanter be hand washed. --Fred Brack

Seems like a nice decanter but when full of some very nice wine, a bottle next to it tipped and just touched the Reidel Magnum decanter which shattered into pieces. The wine was gone. Will never replace the Reidel, rather will buy a more robust glass. Glass is too thin. The event was heartbreaking.

I need one of these for that occasional magnum. Amazon hit every note, even the high C.

Just a regular size decanter. Not for a magnum of wine. Would not have ordered otherwise.

Nice decanters for a value price. Not much to describe - they hold the magnum of wine with room to spare, and have a good neck that makes it easy to hold while allowing cleaning and drying.

Excellent. I love the shape - it looks good and is easy to clean. We have a wide, round bottomed decanter that looks good and lots of air/wine contact, but it's a pain to clean. I really only clean with hot water - don't want those cellared wines tasting soapy - and the wide bottom has some etching in it that's impossible to remove. A common problem, apparently. The shape also requires comparatively little shelf room for storage. Two notes: 1. I'm not at all hung up that it's a "Cabernet" decanter. This will work well with any varietal. 2. I didn't buy this for magnums, I bought it for 750ml bottles. I think the 750ml size decanter is too small - a bottle almost fills it, so not a lot of air/wine contact. It's thin and lightweight - I hope it lasts!!

Purchased this as a gift at it was very well received. Great size and great value compared to high street retail stores (John Lewis and the like).

This an excellent decanter for any fine red wine. While the name says Bordeaux, it works well with any red wine. The name says magnum reflecting a capacity sufficient to hold two regular 750 ml bottles of wine. It is best used for single 750 ml bottles. This fills the decanter to just above the point of widest diameter which exposes the maximum amount of wine to air. The decanter also has a fairly slim profile so it is easy to store.Of course the Riedel decanter that exposes the most wine to air is the . But this is far more expensive, more cumbersome due to its width, and is made with leaded glass. So I prefer the Magnum Cabernet Decanter.Usage tips: The inside surface of the decanter is designed to attract the wine. Pour the wine slowly down the side of the decanter so it breathes while pouring. Maybe use soap to clean the inside ONCE when you first get it and be sure to rinse it really well. After, only use warm water to rinse the decanter. It will discolor over time from the red wine. A great two-step cleaning process is first and then .Highly recommended.If this review was helpful please let me know by voting for it.

We got this as a Christmas gift for our son-in-law and he loved it. The design is classic, the quality is high, the size is great for one or two bottles of wine and it "does the job". Highly recommend it for any wine lovers.

We are very pleased with this decanter. It is functional and beautiful. It really is the perfect size for one bottle of wine. I was concerned that it might be too large and imposing for the dinner table, but that is not the case at all. I highly recommend this decanter.

I purchased this decanter as a Christmas present for my son & his wife. Therefore I cannot comment on its use. However I was very impressed by the way it was packaged by the supplier. The decanter was packed in its own manufacturers box, then packed surrounded by bubble packing in a large cardboard box. This box was so large that I had a job finding the original box within it. As a consequence, the decanter survived transportation without incident. Well done!
