Style notes — Georgian period mainly refers to the second half of the 18th century and up to the 1820s. The style was predominantly neo-classical, that looked back at the ancient Greece and Rome and used those elements in design and decoration. Most Georgian items have straight and very clean lines and elegant repetitive floral patterns.
Facts of Lavish Wine tip — Barolo, Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec, Chianti, Rhône wines and Ports — all these wines usually can benefit from decanting, because they have pretty heavy bodies.
