Riedel Cornetto Single Decanter

Crystal Wine Decanter | Single-Bottle Capacity | 42.5 oz / 1.2L Approx. | 12.8 in / 325mm Height | Handmade Crystal Glass | Clear Design

Process & Profile

Riedel Cornetto Single Decanter is an elegant handmade crystal wine decanter designed to hold a standard 750mL bottle of wine. Its long, curved silhouette gives it a dramatic table presence while also helping wine breathe before serving. The clear crystal construction highlights the color and clarity of red, white, or rosé wine, making it a refined piece for both everyday wine service and special occasions.

The Cornetto shape is designed for practical decanting and visual appeal. Its narrow neck allows for controlled pouring, while the wider base helps expose wine to oxygen, encouraging aromas and flavors to open in the glass. This makes it especially useful for young red wines, full-bodied whites, older bottles with sediment, and wines that benefit from added aeration.

As a Riedel decanter, the Cornetto Single also works as a premium gift item for wine collectors, hosts, newlyweds, and anyone building a home bar or dining collection. Its sleek single-bottle format keeps it functional without taking up excessive table space.

How to Use

Pour wine slowly into the Riedel Cornetto Single Decanter, allowing it to run down the side of the glass. For young red wines, let the wine rest in the decanter for 20 to 60 minutes depending on the bottle’s structure. For older wines, decant gently and stop pouring once sediment reaches the shoulder of the bottle.

After use, rinse the decanter with warm water and allow it to drain completely. Riedel recommends using bottle-cleaning beads or a decanter cleaner to help remove stains and residue from hard-to-reach areas.
