I've heard the Vinturi wine aerator makes any bottle that much better - from Charles Shaw to Napa's finest, it will take your reds to their true potential. Confession: I bought this as a gift for a wine aficionado and have been waiting to get my own. Plus, at $40ish, this will impress the most high-end of your wino friends and you won't have to splurge for a $100+ bottle!

What to get your drunkard friend who has everything? VINTURi! More reasons to get this gadget...
1. wine needs to breathe
simply hold vinturi over a glass and pour wine through. vinturi draws in and mixes the proper amount of air for the right amount of time, allowing your wine to breathe instantly. you'll notice a better bouquet, enhanced flavors and smoother finish. it's that fast. it's that easy.
2. all the taste with none of the wait
the last glass of a bottle tastes better than the first because as wine breathes it opens up, releasing its intended aromas and flavors. traditionally, decanters were used to expose wine to air, allowing it to breathe. however, decanting is time consuming, cumbersome, and inconvenient.
3. vinturi's patent pending design speeds up this process with ease and convenience. perfect aeration in the time it takes to pour a glass.
4. the more you appreciate wine, the more you'll appreciate the difference.

to reach maximun flavor and smoother finishes.

Just saw one of these at a wine tasting at a winery. It seemed to work pretty well

A little known secret is that all wine tastes better aerated. I have used a blende to do this, but this is a much better solution that doesn't cause your guests to look at you like you are a freak.

absolutly wonderful! it instantly aerates wine - making even the best wine even better

The Vinturi Wine Aerator infuses your wine with the optimal amount of air when pouring to allow the intended aromas and flavors to escape. Being that I don't have discriminating tastes, I'm sure that this wouldn't make much of a difference for me. But it definitely seems to be of value to people that actually spend more than $2 on a bottle of wine.

If you wanna drink your wine right away without having to wait for it to breathe, this gadget is perfect for you. Apparently Oprah thought so too as it was featured on Oprah's Favorite Things.
