The flowing silhouette draws on traditional decanter shapes but reads as contemporary rather than old-fashioned, and the handle, the part most decanters treat as an afterthought, is where the handmade character really shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat handle carries a black colour stripe running through it, created by dropping a rod of tinted crystal into the molten glass before the decanter is shaped. Because each piece is formed by hand, no two stripes sit in exactly the same place, and small variations are part of what you're paying for rather than a flaw to overlook. If you want a decanter that looks identical to the one next to it on the shelf, this isn't it.

Since the decanter is shaped by hand, the exact position of the stripe varies slightly from piece to piece, which is part of what makes each one individual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs it normal for mine to look slightly different from the photos?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eYes. Because this decanter is mouth-blown and hand-finished rather than machine-produced, small variations in the handle's exact shape and where the colour stripe sits are normal and expected. That's the nature of handmade glass; if you want complete uniformity between pieces, a machine-made decanter will give you that, but it won't have the same individual character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs this decanter actually meant to be used, or just for display?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eIt's built to be used. The flowing silhouette is shaped to encourage aeration, which genuinely helps open up a young or tightly wound Cabernet, rather than being decorative dressing on a shape that doesn't do anything. That said, it's also a handmade piece people are happy to leave out on display between uses, which is a fair reason to buy one too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow do I clean the inside, given it's handwash only?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eA narrow decanter neck makes the inside hard to reach with a normal brush, which is why Riedel recommends a dedicated decanter or bottle cleaner, typically small weighted beads or pellets you swirl with water to work loose any residue.

It's less necessary for lighter reds or whites, which rarely need the same amount of opening up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #f8f9fa; border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eFatto a Mano: What \"Handmade\" Actually Means Here\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlenty of glassware gets called \"handcrafted\" loosely. Fatto a Mano is Riedel's line where that word is literal: each piece is mouth-blown by a glassblower and finished by hand, not shaped by a machine mould. That has two consequences worth knowing before you buy. The first is that no two decanters come out exactly alike, in the handle's shape, the exact path of the colour stripe, small details that machine production would standardise away. The second is that the piece is generally more delicate than its machine-made equivalent, which is why it's handwash only rather than dishwasher safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth of those are trade-offs people choose deliberately. If uniformity and dishwasher convenience matter more to you than individual character, Riedel's machine-made decanters will suit you better. If you want a piece that shows the hand that made it, Fatto a Mano is built specifically for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: white; border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eWhy Decant a Cabernet in the First Place\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecanting isn't just for show, though it often gets dismissed as such. Young, tannic reds like Cabernet Sauvignon can be tight and closed on opening, with harsh tannins and muted aromatics that only loosen up with air and time. Pouring the wine into a decanter exposes it to far more oxygen than it gets sitting in the bottle, which speeds up that softening considerably. How much benefit you get depends on the wine: an older, more fragile Cabernet needs gentler handling and less aggressive aeration than a young, structured one straight from the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flowing silhouette of this decanter is shaped with that aeration in mind rather than purely for visual effect. A wider body gives the wine more surface area exposed to air as you pour and as it sits, which matters more for a structured red than it would for a delicate white. Once you've decanted, give the wine a few minutes before pouring your first glass, and taste again after twenty to thirty minutes if you can hold off, the difference in a young Cabernet is often noticeable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Fatto a Mano\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 102497\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMPN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4900\/13B\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEAN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9006206329533\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75L (750ml, standard bottle size)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 230mm (23cm)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal, mouth-blown and hand-finished\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handmade colour-stripe handle, flowing aeration-focused silhouette\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux blends, Syrah\/Shiraz and other full-bodied, structured reds\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px; word-wrap: break-word;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handwash only, not dishwasher safe\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\" id=\"care\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHandwashing:\u003c\/strong\u003e This decanter is handwash only.

If you regularly decant magnums or want extra headroom for swirling, Riedel also makes larger Fatto a Mano decanters, but for a standard bottle this size is exactly right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #ddd; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the black handle affect how the wine tastes or ages in the decanter?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eNo. The coloured rod is embedded in the handle, which the wine never touches, so it has no effect on flavour. It's a visual detail rather than a functional one, separate from the body and aeration-focused shape that does the actual work on the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Riedel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58620968927615,"sku":"102497","price":195.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/6871\/0793\/files\/490013B-Riedel-Hand-Made-Fatto-A-Mano-Cabernet-Black-Decanter-2.jpg?v=1791217566","url":"https:\/\/theriedelshop.co.uk\/products\/riedel-decanter-fatto-a-mano-cabernet-black","provider":"The Riedel Shop - Wine Glass Specialists","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
