Decanter Bacchus (Box of 1)

The Bacchus decanter distinguishes itself by an elegant and complex design. Formed freely by hand by RIEDEL master glassblowers, the Bacchus decanter is extremely demanding to create, with a wide mouth for both receiving and pouring wine that gradually tapers in a spiral to a curled and closed tip.

The Bacchus‚ expansive horizontal design, which measures over 45cm long, creates a wide bowl at the base of the decanter that maximizes the surface-to-air space allowing the wine to fully open up and aerate in the vessel. With a fluent silhouette, it is a functional work of art, worthy of a tabletop centerpiece.

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 it can become lodged and unable to remove.

Innovative leaders of functionally designed glassware, RIEDEL proudly presents its DRINK SPECIFIC GLASSWARE series developed in collaboration with US spirits specialist, Zane Harris.

Caring for your RIEDEL Crystal

• RIEDEL glasses are dishwasher safe. RIEDEL exclusively recommends MIELE
• To avoid stains: use soft water (low mineral content)
• To avoid scratches: Avoid glass contact with other glass or metal
• To remove stains: use white vinegar
• If available use a stemware rack

If washing by hand

• Wash the glass under warm water (use detergent and rinse the glass carefully)
• Glass polishing: Use two polishing cloths, never hold the glass by the base to polish the bowl
• Stem snap: Occurs through mishandling = torque or bend pressure at the stem
• Storage: Avoid glass storage in kitchen cabinets which have strong aromas that translates into glass

Microfiber Polishing Cloth

• Wash at boiling temperature (to kill bacteria) with odorless soap
• Should be machine washed at min. 170° F/75° C
• Never use fabric softener when rinsing your microfiber polishing cloth (avoids grease film on surface)
