This decanter for younger wines (and all spirits) is the larger one in the picture, without the stopper.
We are in love with Jancis Robsinson's One Wine Glass.
While, unlike the glasses, Jancis Robinson's Two Wine Decanters make no claim to enhance the visceral pleasure of consuming; they are functional and beautiful. The older wine decanter is smaller, for when your primary objective is to get wine off sediment, not aeration.
I have spent 42 years trying to make wine as approachable and as pleasurable as possible and sincerely believe that just one glass for all wines makes perfect practical sense. So, I proposed to Richard Brendon that, if we were to design a wine glass together, it should be just one size and shape. Gossamer-thin glass with a particularly thin rim puts the taster in as close communication with the liquid as possible, so my glass had to be individually mouth-blown by skillful, experienced artisans
We also wanted to offer decanters as part of the range, recognising that the sort of decanter suitable for young wine is very different from what is needed for old wine. Below is the thoroughly satisfying (to eye, palate and arm) young-wine decanter. It echoes the shape of the wine glass while maximising the surface area of the wine and providing an ideal way of aerating the wine: seizing the neck and swirling it around.
This works just as well as a magnum decanter too.
