Long ago I learned the benefits of decanting red wine about an hour
before serving. It allows it to breath and improves taste and makes it
smoother.
Over the past few years I got away from it since most times I am cooking
for myself and have a half bottle. Last night I made a nice dinner for
four of us and decanted a bottle of zinfandel ahead of time. Sure made
a difference.
I put the decanter where I see it all the time and will do just a half
bottle for myself in the future. Worth the small effort.
Mine is similar to this. No need to spend a lot of money but you can.

lazy set in. It does make a difference. Wine likes some air to open
up. Also have one of these;
https://www.amazon.com/Vintorio-Wine-Aerator-Pourer-Aerating/dp/B00T1F5CSU
It works pretty well also and you don't have to air the whole bottle if
your not going to consume it all in one sitting. Still don't use it
much. Thanks for the reminder and next red wine I open (probably
tonight) .. will use one of 'em. Zinfandel used to be my favorite
grape, now it's pinot noir. I may head back to zin since pinot has
gotten so expensive even for a middle of the road one. Everything we
buy these days has taken a huge jump in price though.

looked cool. I don't even have a cabinet to showcase them.
My wife consumes a liter of wine every five years, and I drink beer.
I thought they'd impress at the few parties I threw, along with the cool
wine glasses that go with them. I guess they did?
What a waste of money!

You should check, some decanters have really increased in value. If
you don't use them you could sell them and buy beer :)

could be used for just about anything. Both functional and decorative.
They are not truly "decanting" a bottle of wine.

Back in my day, it was Ripple wine with the greatest slogan ever!

"You can't make a splash without a Ripple!"
That great slogan couldn't save the wine. It died in 1984. RIP, you
know, like in RIPple ;-)
