Some decanters for Brandy, can have a similar shape as Your example, however the metal mount with its pouring spout suggests it was produced for Red wine. The aptly named &quot;Ship Decanter&quot; is/were produced with large/flat bottoms to them which prevents them toppling over whilst at sea in a gale force 9 hurricane!&nbsp; As with like drinking glasses their shapes &amp; sizes can improve the drink within, and to &quot;decant&quot; red wine (and/or Port) from its bottle and into a Decanter, allows air to distribute throughout the liquid which improves the taste &amp; aroma... unless of course you&#039;re a Redneck, in which case you simply pop the cork and swig from the bottle or use the wine to feed the kids with, like I do! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
