Which Red Wine Should Be Decanted?
Red wines that are high in tannins, such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Nebbiolo, benefit from decanting. Decanting allows the wine to breathe and the harsh tannins to soften, resulting in a smoother and more enjoyable drinking experience. It is also recommended to decant older red wines, as they may have sediment that can be separated during the decanting process, providing a clearer wine.
