    A wine pitcher may refer to a decanter or a carafe. A wine decanter, which allows wine to interact with the oxygen in the air — or to “breathe” — helps remove unwanted sediment. It is usually made of glass and has a traditional bowl base with a tapered neck. A decanter is different from a carafe, as carafes are wider and more decorative — a carafe is for everyday use and it won’t affect the wine’s taste or other characteristics.
