The Riedel Eve Decanter
I had my first look at the Riedel Eve Decanter at a tasting a few weeks ago, "Glassware. You're Doing It Wrong." Glassware expert and Riedel heir Maximilian Riedel showed it to us, commenting that it was made for him, as he was born in the year of the snake.
If there's anything stranger than aerating wine by shaking the decanter, it's the Eve Decanter. This funny-shaped, swirly and yes, snake-like tube of glass is highly effective for aeration, and a darn good party trick. Check out the video above to see Maximilian demonstrate it for you.
How does one clean it? Well, we hear that "Maximilian washes his snake in the bathtub."
To purchase the decadent and delightful Eve Decanter ($495.00), visit Riedel.com.
