Description

Inspired by a pigs tail, Curly's curvature serves as a tool for the enjoyment of wine, speedily opening it up and achieving what would take hours if simply allowing the wine to breathe in the bottle.

"The curl of a pig's tail has always intrigued me," says Georg Riedel. "I have long wondered what the function of the pig's coiled tail is, and sought to provide an answer by interpreting the shape into an elegant, functional design."

In use, the resulting decanter creates a series of air pockets which charge the wine with oxygen as it moves towards the elegant opening upon pouring.

ATTENTION!!!!

Our bottle cleaner steel pallets are NOT SUITABLE for this decanter!

"I prefer to decant wines, both young and old. It is a sign of respect for old wines and a sign of confidence in young wines. Decanting old wines, just a few moments before they are served, helps to ensure that the wines' clarity and brilliance are not obscured by any deposit that may have developed over time. Decanting young wines several hours before they are served gives the wine a chance to bloom and attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging." - (thoughts on decanting by Christian Moueix)

Riedel

Riedel has been producing hand-blown wine glasses since the 1950's, but what has distinguished them from other manufacturers is their discovery In 1973 that the bouquet, taste, balance, and finish of wines is affected by the shape of the glass from which the wine is drank from. With this knowledge Riedel has produced many different shapes of wine glasses to best highlight the different characteristics of different types of wine, and today offers over 150 different wine glasses and wine products to best showcase your wine.
