The "CENTELLINO" is the single-serving wine decanter. The "CENTELLINO" is an object with a patented brand and design, handmade, blown glass, MADE IN ITALY.

The "CENTELLINO" is an oenological product with tested technical results.

The "CENTELLINO" decants, by oxygenating it, about 100ml. of wine at a time, thus providing a perfect tasting dose. As the wine descends, it gently settles on the walls of the blown-glass 'amphora' (tank), oxygenating itself and thus releasing its aromas and organoleptic properties. In addition to being an excellent tool for serving wine in the glass, the "CENTELLINO", thanks to its design, is also a beautiful ornamental object.

The "CENTELLINO" with its soft and harmonious design completes and enriches the table. Exclusive gift item and souvenir of Italy and its wine world.

Laboratory Notes:

Organoleptic analysis: the wine poured into the glass through the glass decanter, with its characteristic amphora shape, "centellino" is recognised as different from the wine poured directly into the glass at a 95% confidence level by a panel of 6 expert tasters subjected to a trianolar test. Wine passed through centellino is described as "more open, cleaner, more harmonious". People have been talking about the centello, or ciantello, or centellino, since ancient times.

The Latins called it cyatulus, diminutive of cyatus, from the Greek Kyathos from Kyo 'to pour'. An object with which precious and ancient ambrosias and spirits were poured. Later, the centellino, in the ancient post in the form of a kind of spoon, was used to pour an intoxicating sip of wine.

That suave sipping from ciantello to ciantello cheered the pauses of weary travellers. Then came the glass, the flask and the bottle, so the skilled glassmaker drew a ciantello on it.

Today, the 'Centellino' produced and crafted by skilled artisans, embellishes noble tables. The 'Centellino' decants and portions excellent wines, oxygenates and opens their bouquets, thus making the precious nectars more suave and harmonious.
