Decanters Amadeo Magnum Optic

The Amadeo was launched in 2006 to celebrate the 250th anniversary of RIEDEL. Named after fellow Austrian composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, whose 250th birthday was also celebrated that year, this hand-blown decanter is shaped like a lyre and pours like a dream. Wine is simply decanted into the vessel's wider opening and poured into the glass through its slender mouth.

This Riedel Decanter, with its optically blown glass, presents itself as a stunning work of art, capturing the dance of light and color with every turn.

This decanter is designed to hold a magnum bottle of wine.

Riedel's decanter collection features a great assortment of shapes and designs from the crystal masters at Riedel."I prefer to decant wines, both young and old. It is a sign of respect for old wines and a sign of confidence in young wines. Decanting old wines, just a few moments before they are served, helps to ensure that the wines' clarity and brilliance are not obscured by any deposit that may have developed over time. Decanting young wines several hours before they are served gives the wine a chance to bloom and attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging." - (thoughts on decanting by Christian Moueix)
