Wine Decanter Explained! When and How to Use It?

Serious Mealtimes / Will Dickey

Almost any wine decanter will do but the right one for you is a matter of personal preference: aesthetics cleaning and storage are all things to consider. However you can’t go wrong with a standard wine decanter like one of our favorites from Riedel.

You’re probably familiar with the idea that 90% of taste is smell. When it comes to wine things like acidity and residual sugar are perceived by the tongue but all the subtle flavors like hints of clove or ripe fruit are recognized by the nose. That’s why these notes are often called aromatics.
