Nice for one-bottle dinners
This is my 2nd decanter. I've had a glass one for about 4 years that can easily handle (2) 750ml bottles, and while I love that decanter it seems too big when I only want to decant 1 bottle so I can have a glass or two. I decided to try the Riedel decanter after looking around a while because its diameter won't take up too much space in the cupboard and there were some decent reviews on it. My first impression was that it's really thin walled, but I guess that's a difference between crystal and glass (yes, I'm ignorant on that subject). However since I don't plan to drop it, it shouldn't be a problem. It seems perfect for (1) 750ml bottle which I pour through a decanting funnel to aerate it (I've uploaded a picture to show this decanter with a full bottle in it). After I have a glass or two, the neck of the decanter makes it really easy to pour the rest back into the bottle even without a funnel. So while you don't have the most exposed surface area with a full bottle, this is the perfect size for the dinner table to hold what's left after you've poured a couple glasses.

Simple and practical
The glass is thin but not so thin as to worry about easily breaking it. With just a slight twist at the end, there is no dripping down the outside of the decanter. It looks elegant, not like something that belongs in the movie lab of a 1950's mad scientist. I do find it odd that a 750 ml bottle puts the widest part of the decanter exactly halfway between the bottom and the level of the wine. I get aeration is not the primary aim of this particular decanter, but why make any part of wider then where the top level of the wine would be, unless the idea is you would decant half a bottle at a time. It still gets plenty of air, really, just odd to give it the most air half way through drinking it. The shape makes it extremely easy to clean and even stick a dish towel into to dry--low maintenance was a high priority for me. Simple and practical, which is what I wanted.

looks small, but the wine fits!
This is a perfect little decanter with the quality that you come to expect from Riedel. When I first unpacked it, I thought that it was small and could not fit the entire 750mL of wine, but I was wrong. Perfect fit, perfect amount of aeration. The only thing I was extremely concerned about was the packaging: or should I say the lack of packaging... it was just the store thin cardboard box with the thinnest layer of bubble wrap on the OUTSIDE of the Riedel box. Mailing label was on the thin bubble wrap. I thought for sure that the decanter would be in shards, but was pleasantly surprised it was not. So we can add durability and sturdiness as one of the features of this decanter.

Lovely decanter
So glad that I bought this decanter. Made well. It's a little delicate as in thin wallled glass, but that's due to the quality of the glass decanter. I always hand wash it, and place it in my china cabinet for safe keeping. I have used this decanter at least three times a week for my Italian, French, and California red wines. It will hold 750 ml bottle wines easily. It looks beautiful on my table. Decants superbly, And if I don't use all of the wine, it pours easily back into the bottle. It's a winner and well worth the cost.
