Decanting wine is a simple act of pouring wine from a bottle into a vessel like a decanter. Decanting is a great tool that removes sediments from older vintages, and also aerates wine, releasing more of its aromas and flavors. Full-bodied wines with rich, supple tannins like Missouri’s Norton especially benefit from decanting. Check out this Missouri Wines video for a quick step-by-step guide on how to decant wine.
