The
Vinturi
Everyone who enjoys wine probably knows that wine tastes better when it has been aerated or decanted. Basically what happens is exposing more of the volume of the wine to the air allows the vino to ‘breathe,’ thus counteracting the tannins in the wine. The result is a better bouquet, better flavors, and a smoother finish.
This small device is designed to decant without the decanter. Just hold the Vinturi over your glass and pour the wine into the top. Holes on the side suck in air as it goes through, aerating the wine. In a nutshell, it’s just like a decanter and works about the same. To learn more about decanting watch this video from the Globe .
There are a few advantages with Vinturi over a decanter: Cleanup is far easier, and you can decant as you go. With most decanters, once you pour it in, you’re sunk. Pouring unfinished wine back into the bottle is tough if you don’t finish it off in one night.
All of that and it is a great conversation piece as well.
That is what others have said about the Vinturi. What we say is real simple. We will probably never drink red wine without it ever again. We have received the following comments from customers unsolicited:
"I just wanted to let you guys know how much I love your Vinturi. I came down and bought one yesterday and it works miracles on my husbands homemade wine! What a difference! I can't wait to try it with "real" wine :)" (February 26, 2009)
"This purchase was actually a lot smarter than I originally intended. Though finishing a bottle of wine in a night doesn't seem to be a problem I have, or why I would need the Vinturi, what I did not realize is that it actually takes out the evil that causes the headaches later. How exceptional is that? Worth every penny!" (April 2, 2009)
Comes with a no-drip stand and a travel pouch. Acrylic. Aerator and stand are dishwasher safe. Available at our store for $49.99
