Riedel Black Tie Bliss Decanter 1.2L

The Bliss decanter is a true labour of love, featuring a round base with an off-center heart embossed from each side. This clever design allows the wine to pool around the heart, increasing the surface area for better aeration and providing a comfortable grip. Adorned with a sophisticated black tuxedo stripe from top to bottom, it adds a touch of elegance to any occasion. This decanter is designed to hold a single bottle of wine.

RIEDEL offers a diverse range of elegant mouth-blown decanters to suit every lifestyle and budget. A functional and beautiful decanter is a must-have for wine enthusiasts, and RIEDEL's fine crystal glass ensures quality wines receive the treatment they deserve. Decanting can enhance both old and young wines by removing sediment or smoothing and rounding their flavours.

Each piece is individually crafted by our master glassmakers, making every decanter unique. Due to the handcrafted nature of the process, small variations in size and weight, tiny bubbles, imperfections, or slight surface variations are normal and add to the charm of the creation.

ABOUT RIEDEL

When developing a glass, RIEDEL's design ideas are not born on a drawing board, but shaped by trial and error with the help and support of the world's greatest palates. A person interested in wine is led by color, bouquet and taste, but often the glass is not considered as an instrument to convey the wine's message. Over the years, RIEDEL has acquired some interesting scientific explanations as to why the shape of a glass influences the bouquet and taste of alcoholic beverages. The first discovery was made while enjoying wine. The same wine displayed completely differently characteristics when served in a variety of glasses. The differences were so great that experienced connoisseurs were made to believe that they were tasting different wines. The grape variety is the key factor in determining the relationship between fruit, acidity, tannin and alcohol. As the next step, RIEDEL was able to create shapes in which the wine, vinified from specific grape varieties, seemed to improve. We started to recognize the complex role that size and shape play in conveying the message of a fine wine.
