Decanter Black Tie Face To Face
KES55,400
Caution – the indented design feature of this decanter must not be used as a handle. Do not insert your hand or any item into the indented area. The soaring Face to Face decanter features two concave profiles facing one another in the interior of the vessel. These are the profiles of the 11th generation RIEDELs, Laetizia and Maximilian, and this innovative element doubles as both a bold design and as paddles.
With its long graceful neck, this decanter is ideal for invigorating young wines. By shaking the wine until a foam cap develops, it achieves the maximum effect of oxygen on young tannins.
Like the rest of the Black Tie collection, Face to Face is dressed up with a black tuxedo stripe that extends gracefully from top to bottom. This is achieved by introducing a rod of black crystal into the molten glass before the decanter has been formed.
This decanter is designed for a single bottle of wine.
This pack contains a single piece.
This product is handmade. Please handwash only.
The RIEDEL Bottle Cleaner cannot be used with this product as they can become lodged and unable to remove.

Decanter Mamba Fatto a Mano
KES39,000The Mamba Fatto a Mano decanter was introduced in 2017 as a compliment to the colourful and elegant Fatto a Mano glass series. In the Fatto a Mano Edition, four classic RIEDEL decanters have been reiterated with optical blown glass and a black-white-black ornamental line that enhances their dynamic designs. The art of optically blown glass originated in Venice, the cradle of the most superior glassblowing techniques, with few glass blowers still proficient in this method.
The alluring Mamba decanter channels the vigor of the famous Black Mamba, the world’s fastest snake. Following on from the serpentine Eve decanter (2008), the Mamba’s poised upright stance and coiled design creates a series of air pockets which “double decants” the wine. This decanter is recommended for young wines.

RIEDEL “O” TO GO BIG O SYRAH (TUBE)
KES1,900The Shiraz glass is perfect for balancing the gripping tannins and concentrated fruit typical of medium-bodied red wines.
This shape was developed between 1993-1995 following sensory workshops in major Shiraz growing regions, and has become the most versatile red wine shape in the RIEDEL range. With a slightly tapered opening, the large bowl develops the intense aromas, and demontrates mouthfilling fruit, dignified structure, and a long sweet finish on the palate.

Decanter Escargot
KES35,400The Escargot decanter is an adorable and functional addition to your dining table. As with some of RIEDEL’s snake decanters, the Escargot ‘double decants’ wines through its smart design. When sitting upright on your table, an air vaccum appears in the body of the decanter. As you tip to pour, the vaccum forces fresh air though the already decanted wine, creating a bubbling gurgle. This vigorous process makes it ideal for young wines.
This decanter is designed for a single bottle of wine.

RIEDEL recommends: Use bottle cleaners to remove stains from the decanter.
