Inspired by original designs from the 18th century,
designer and
vintner Sandra Jordan has recreated a traditional wine decanting tool with her
Healdsburg Funnel. The funnel is silver-plated and contains a removable strainer to filter out any wayward bits of cork before they reach the glass as you pour out of the angled tip. It sits on a tastevin base, which not only serves to catch drips when the funnel is removed from the wine bottle and set to rest, but was once used by sommeliers for tasting and observing the quality of the wines. Price:
$225.

Wine funnel . . . or torture device. Looks wicked.
