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.

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.
