Wine has many solids suspended in the raw fermentation batch. Over time, the solids will settle out to the bottom of the container.
To get the "good" wine separated from the mess at the bottom of the container, tubing is inserted into the clear wine above, a syphon process is started.
Then the pick-up end of the syphon is set just barely above the settled-out mess, so that only the clear wine is syphoned out, leaving the contaminated wine and solids in the original container.
Therefore, the process of "decantation" is the removal of a "clean" portion of a liquid from above the sediment in a container.
