Wine duck decanter DAHLIA, PEUGEOT -2012-

DAHLIA DECANTER for 75 cl
WILL MAKE YOUR HEAD SPIN!

Don’t let it fool you! Dahlia, reminiscent of a childhood spinning top toy knows how to hold it together. It sits on the table in a perfect steady fashion and will enhance the most beautiful wines.
Its curves and large disk shape help enhance the aeration desired by the most stringent sommeliers, making it an ideal decanter for young red wines. The custom designed ergonomic carafe together with the drip stop ring easily helps you achieve a successful pouring experience.
"Decanting is the noble act, which consists of separating the deposit of a wine (its solid part) from the wine itself.
The decanting is simply the act which consists in aerating the wine, in contact with the air, so that the wine (often young) can fill out, and settle down. "

"An old wine can be decanted, and therefore support this act, provided that it is built for that.
Let its architecture be very solid, powerful, its opulent structure, and its tannins still present, even firm.
So to speak, a very great wine, in a very great vintage. Bordeaux wines, great wines from the Rhône Valley. "

"The decanting consists only in pouring the wine into a decanter in order to soften it. It is practiced especially for young red or white wines. These wines are very often still not very homogeneous, their elements are still a little scattered.
These wines need to be shaken a little, in order to make them more welcoming.
Like a spanking given to a turbulent young child, this act helps to soften the wine, ultimately making it more approachable.
Any young wine with a rich, complex structure, southern wines, sunny, should be decanted. The same goes for white wines. "
