Wine Enthusiast Art Series Wine Tower Decanting Set: A striking decanter to look at, this is a multi-part unit comprising three different glass pieces that slot into a wooden tower. Our testers loved the fact that serving was easy, with no drips observed. But while they thought the design was very unique, they also felt it was "too extra." The fact that the parts are not fixed into place made them nervous, and they observed that the two top pieces (which were the most delicate) "just slot in and are somewhat unsteady." They also felt that the wooden tower seemed "cheap," noting that the walnut stain on the wood was not even.

How much wine you typically decant should dictate what size product you choose. While most models are equipped to hold one full bottle, others are made so you can decant a single glass at a time. Also, consider the amount of storage space you have—some decanters fit right on top of a bottle and are small enough to store in a drawer, while others are the size of a large vase and need more room.You can leave wine in the decanter for up to three days if it has an airtight stopper. After that, it starts to receive too much air and can turn stale. We did appreciate that the wine opened up nicely during the test, and for a larger decanter, it was easily cleaned with warm and soapy water; this decanter doesn't hold up well in the dishwasher. It's durable, easy to hold, and inexpensive; it's hard to top those attributes. White wines can be decanted, and it won’t hurt the wine.
