Epic Classique Decanter & Funnel Set #37148
Details
This decanter set is a thoughtful addition to any table when hosting friends for dinner or sharing a special bottle. The wide base of the lead-free glass vessel provides ample surface area for wine to breathe while the included stainless steel funnel ensures a clean pour every time.
The set includes a mesh filter that catches sediment and cork fragments as you pour from the bottle. Because the funnel is dishwasher safe and comes with its own drip stand, cleanup is straightforward after the evening ends.
Best For
- Opening a tannic red wine twenty minutes before guests arrive
- Filtering an older vintage with a crumbly cork or heavy sediment
- Arriving at a housewarming party with a gift that is ready for the first pour
Features
- 54 oz decanter capacity: Holds a full 750ml bottle with room to spare, so you can pour the entire bottle at once rather than refilling mid-table.
- Wide, low base: The broad bowl shape maximizes wine-to-air contact as it sits, which matters most for tannic reds that need time to open up before serving.
- Decanter is made from lead-free glass
- 18/8 stainless steel funnel with oversized mesh filter: The fine mesh catches sediment and stray cork fragments during the pour, so they stay in the bottle rather than ending up in the glass.
- Included drip stand: The funnel rests upright in its own stand between uses, with a base that catches any drips — no need to set the funnel on a towel or find somewhere to put it mid-pour.
- Funnel is dishwasher safe
- Set includes three pieces: the Classique Decanter, the stainless funnel and the drip stand

FAQs
What exactly comes in this set?
A: The set includes two pieces: the Epic Classique 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 18/8 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 Classique Decanter holds 54 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 9¾ inches tall and measures 8½ inches wide at the base.
Is any part of this set dishwasher safe?
A: The stainless steel funnel and drip stand are dishwasher safe. The lead-free glass decanter is not listed as dishwasher safe and should be hand washed — standard practice for any wide-base decanter where the base diameter makes most dishwasher racks a poor fit anyway.
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 lead-free glass 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.
