And if you handle the bottle properly, there's no need to stand it up ahead of time. Remove it smoothly from its resting place—where hopefully it's been lying on its side, label up—and place it, still horizontal, in a basket or cradle. Open the bottle, and remove it from the cradle, still horizontal, and pour smoothly into the decanter until you see sediment approaching the neck and stop. https://www.winespectator.com/articles/how-long-before-a-bordeaux-blind-tasting-should-i-decant-my-wines

I don't see much point in double-decanting unless you're going to take the wine somewhere later, or you don't have enough decanters. You might want to rinse out any sediment before returning the wine to the bottle.
