Features
Signature Silhouette: The Swan takes its inspiration from the graceful movement of a swan, with a long, flowing neck and sculptural curves that make it one of Riedel's most distinctive handmade decanters.
Elegant Pouring: The elongated neck terminates in a drip-resistant pouring spout, while the wide opening at the opposite end allows wine to be transferred easily from the bottle into the decanter.
Aeration Performance: The Swan is designed to hold a standard 750ml bottle and provides generous space for the wine to breathe, helping aromas develop and tannins soften. It is suitable for wines of all ages.
Sculptural Centrepiece: Beyond its practical function, the Swan is designed as a visual centrepiece, turning the ritual of decanting and serving wine into an elegant presentation.
Handmade Craftsmanship: Each Swan is individually mouth-blown by master glassblowers in Riedel's European workshops. Small variations, bubbles and minor imperfections are natural characteristics of handmade crystal and make every piece unique.

Bottle Cleaner: Not recommended. Riedel advises against using Bottle Cleaner because the cleaning beads may become lodged inside the Swan's intricate form.
