Details
Avance Decanter + Funnel Set (P/N 37431). Made in Europe, this classic decanter features a wide base and an elegant curved neck, with an indented punt that provides a secure grip for one-handed pouring.
The wide base exposes the wine to more surface area and oxygen, allowing it to open up to its full potential and bring out the very best qualities of the nose and flavor.
The set includes a stainless steel funnel and mesh filter to catch sediment and cork fragments. Cleanup is simple, thanks to a dishwasher-safe funnel and a dedicated drip stand.

FAQs
What exactly comes in this set?
A: The set includes two pieces: the Avance Decanter and a stainless steel decanter funnel with its own drip stand. The funnel features an oversized mesh filter and sits on the stand when not in use, so there’s no awkward place to rest it between pours. Everything you need to decant a full bottle is included out of the box.
How does the funnel actually improve the pour?
A: The stainless steel funnel aerates wine as it passes through, which helps open up tight, young reds by introducing oxygen at the pour rather than waiting for passive aeration in the decanter. The oversized mesh filter catches sediment and any traces of cork before they reach the decanter, so what ends up in the glass is clean and expressive.
What is the decanter’s capacity, and will it hold a full bottle of wine?
A: The Avance Decanter holds 50.7 ounces, which is enough for a standard 750ml bottle (approximately 25 oz) with substantial room to spare — the wide base is specifically designed to maximize wine surface area and oxygen exposure, not just volume. The decanter stands 10 inches tall and measures 8 1/4 inches wide at the base.
Is any part of this set dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, both the stainless steel funnel and lead-free glass decanter are dishwasher safe.
Is this set packaged well enough to give as a gift?
A: The set is sold as a gift set and includes both the decanter and the funnel stand as a complete, coordinated pair. The polished stainless steel of the funnel stand visually complements the clear crystal of the decanter, so the presentation reads as intentional rather than assembled. It works equally well as a host gift or for entertaining at home.
Which wines benefit most from using this decanter and funnel together?
A: The combination is most effective with young, full-bodied reds — Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Nebbiolo — where aeration through the funnel accelerates the opening of tight tannins and the wide base continues passive oxygenation in the decanter. It’s also useful for older wines with sediment, where the mesh filter does the practical work of keeping the pour clean.
