The Thumbs Up decanter is part of the Riedel "O" collection by Maximilian Riedel. It is designed not only to allow the wine to breathe and reach the pinnacle of its flavor, as Riedel strives to do with most of their designs, but it is meant to deliver a secure, elegant pour. There is a divot in the base of the decanter made for the thumb, allowing the rest of the hand to cradle the crystal, instead of gripping its sides. It holds a full 750-ml of wine and the elliptical opening is shaped to prevent dripping, so this is an excellent choice for serving to a group of guests, making it easy to move from glass to glass.
