Sit back, relax, breathe. That goes for your wine, too.
L'Atelier du Vin Carafe Perchée Ronde, $258 at Peter's of Kensington
The raised glass podium base means your wine literally takes centre stage. Combine the sleek and tall design, lead-free glass, and the bonus of a yellow glass stopper, and this is a wine decanter that you'll gladly pull out for future dinner parties. SHOP NOW.
Tom Dixon Tank whisky decanter in Black, $245 at David Jones
Scientific glassware was the inspiration behind the Tank collection, and you can see it here in the sturdy, block-ish form of this whisky decanter. The colour is a unique fusion of clear and black glass, and each decanter is handmade, meaning there will be slight, characteristic variations between items. SHOP NOW.
Riedel Mamba decanter, $800 at Dan Murphy's
From the Austrian glassware house comes the mini-me version of their popular Mamba decanter. The serpentine crystal-glass form remains – the series of air pockets in the design "double decants" the wine – but the smaller size means it's easier to store. SHOP NOW.
Georg Jensen wine carafe, $110 (usually $220) at David Jones
It's the fluid shape that you'll notice first, and the extra details you'll appreciate later: a silicone and steel stopper, the deep divet at the base for easy pouring. It's good-looking yet practical, and exactly what we've come to expect from the Danish design house. SHOP NOW.
Eva Solo cool wine decanter, $185 at Peter's of Kensington
For a two-in-one wine chiller and decanter, look no further. Keep the gel-filled base in the freezer; when it's time to drink, place the decanter on top, and fill with your desired white wine or rosé. Plus, all parts of the decanter are dishwasher-safe. SHOP NOW.
Penguin decanter, from $225 at Glass Decanter
Spilling wine on your guests is a party faux pas of the past with the Penguin decanter that features an ergonomic design - preventing drip, as well as embarrassment. SHOP NOW.
