Holcomb Birdie Wine Decanter

As you pour, the wine cascades over the hand-blown glass sphere, which increases the liquid's surface area and exposure to oxygen. This process, known as aeration, helps soften tannins and release the wine's bouquet, resulting in a smoother, more aromatic glass.

No, only the aerator and the metal coaster are dishwasher safe. The hand-blown glass vessel and the ash wood trivet should be hand-washed to preserve their finish and structural integrity.

The decanter holds 61 ounces, which is more than enough to comfortably accommodate a standard 750ml bottle of wine with plenty of room for aeration.

Yes, the trivet is specifically designed to provide a stable, flat foundation for the decanter. It also serves a dual purpose by protecting your table surfaces from potential condensation or drips.

While it is designed specifically for wine aeration, the vessel is food-safe and can technically be used for other beverages. However, the aeration mechanism is optimized for the viscosity and oxygenation needs of wine.

The decanter is made of hand-blown glass, which is elegant but requires careful handling. While it is durable enough for regular use, it should be washed and stored with the same care you would give any fine glassware.
