Some older wines can deteriorate very quickly, so decanting them and drinking them say over an hour or so can be a huge mistake. It's often better to stand the bottle upright for a few hours to let the sediment settle, then taste it before deciding whether to decant. If you choose not to decant, then handle the bottle with care to avoid mixing the sediment. having a rule to "decant to remove sediment from an old wine", can be a huge mistake and could ruin a very special bottle.

Decant your wine if you want to have a flat wine. Once oxygenated, the wine changes form. And, not for the better.

@@dr.denisschreiber8783 I mostly agree with this!
