Riedel’s Sommeliers Black Tie Face to Face wine decanter is both a fitting and delightfully dramatic expression of these convivial times. Mouth-blown by a master artisan in Austria, the 24-percent lead crystal form features a spectacularly elongated neck and a bulb-shaped body contoured on the interior by two faces in profile. When the decanter is filled, the faces provide both extra surface area for the wine to open and create a captivating sculptural effect.

A slender black tuxedo stripe runs down the side and traces one of the faces for an unexpected and highly sophisticated finish. Designed to fit snugly in the hand, the decanter holds 62-1/4 ounces and stands 23-5/8 inches high. The renowned Riedel family has specialized in fine glassware for more 300 years and holds every piece to exacting standards of quality and originality. As with all handmade works, each is unique and inimitable. To clean the decanter, simply rinse with hot water.
