Do you decant your wine? There are real reasons to do it for clarity and aeration. But ultimately it's about personal preference; some people really love to pour and drink wine from a beautiful glass decanter, or they like how it looks on the table. These 10 decanters range from jaw-dropping expensive ($750!) to a much more modest $27, and all prices in between.

Beautiful!
So, the first one, the 750.00 one, is the decanter that I would truly love to have. But, I love the Wine Carafe with Oak stopper. I feel that would be a pretty decent compromise.
Emilylentini - that was exactly my thought!
Why is it when there are several items to choose from I always gravitate to the most expensive one?!
We just got a decanter as a wedding gift, and I love how much better the wine tastes. It's a Ravenscroft, Crystal Ultra Magnum Decanter. Lovely piece to have on the table!
I bought a decanter from Ikea that has the shape of #6 (7/8/10). The glass is really thin but it was hella cheap. Have not seen them there ever again.
