White Decanter Carafe

White Decanter Carafe

You "decant" a red wine. What is it called when you pour a white wine into a decanter or carafe?

There is actually a term for when we pour white wines into decanters and that term is not "decant." Many of us do pour white wines into decanters both to help it breath and for aesthetics. I am not asking if we should or when we should, but what is the term.
Let me try again. We "decant" red wines in order to separate the sediment from the wine, but since white wines do not have sediment, we cannot "decant' them. On the other hand, many of us do pour our white wines into decanters in oder to help them breathe and for aesthetics. There is actually a specific term for the practice of pouring white (as opposed to red) wine into decanters and that term is not "decant" but I cannot remember that term.

I see from the answers you received a great deal of non-related information to your question. The answer is "deflor." A French word meaning " to open up or lay in the open." By the way, most white wine decanters are narrow and have a tall neck. My experience in Europe with deflor white wine involved placing deflor wine in the refrigerator for approximately 45 minutes to one hour. Always remember, as chilled white wine adjusts to room temperature, its' true essence is released.
