Product Description
The black glass design and the unique styling of the Riedel Cornetto single wine decanter makes this a must have in your collection. The graceful silhouette of a swan is the inspiration for the Riedel Cornetto Single Wine Decanter. The glass artists at Riedel Glassware replicate the swan�s elegant neck for this hand-sculpted 100% lead crystal wine decanter. The Riedel Swan Decanter is as easy to hold and pour from as it is captivating. Size: 12-5/8"H, 41-1/4 oz

Amazon.com Review
The simple, modern shape of Riedel's Cornetto decanter was inspired by both the graceful curve of a swan's neck and the alpine hunter's horn known as the cornetto. Made in a clear version as well, the crystal decanter here is opaque black, which serves two purposes: the black strikes a contemporary design note that adds boldness to a table setting; and it masks the color and clarity of the wine within, allowing a host to amuse guests with a double-blind test, with the addition of opaque black wine glasses. (Surprisingly, many oenophiles can't tell a white from a red by taste alone.) Mouth-blown of leaded crystal by master European glassblowers, the Cornetto decanter aerates an entire standard-size bottle of wine with its 42-3/8-ounce full capacity and 12-3/4-inch height. The slanted rim makes pouring precise.

A superb gift for a wine connoisseur, the Cornetto decanter allows either a young or old wine to fully develop before drinking. A magnum size of the opaque black version is also available. As with all fine Riedel crystal, the decanter should be carefully washed by hand in hot, soapy water and allowed to air dry. --Ann Bieri
