Decanters, Carafes & Pitchers

How to Serve Wine and Spirits With Decanters

Aerate and preserve the flavor and aroma of wines, liqueurs and spirits, and add a statement piece to your dining room table, home bar or bar cart with carafes and glass decanters.

Carafes for Liquor, Water, Juice and More

A carafe allows fine wine to breathe before pouring and offers a sophisticated, dramatic presentation. The crystalline glass is handcrafted and lets the beverage shine on the table. Not just for alcohol, glass carafes also store water, juice and other beverages. The stainless steel and vacuum insulation of thermal carafes preserve the temperature of both cold and hot coffee drinks for hours. Stylishly store bourbon, whiskey and wine with glass decanters with stoppers. The perfectly angled bases are designed to aerate the drink and deepen the flavor, and the tight-fitting stoppers preserve that developed taste.

Glass Decanters Elevate Drink Serving and Storage

While carafes are well-suited to serve and store nearly all types of beverages, decanters are suited specifically to serving and storing wine, whisky, bourbon and liqueurs. Glass decanter designs range from classic to contemporary to mid-century modern and make a splash in your kitchen or on your bar cart next to bar accessories and bar tool sets. Accent your tabletop with a carafe or decanter that complements your other table accessories. For example, consider a glass decanter if your tableware is made of the same material.
