What is a Wine Aerator?

by WineExpert on December 29, 2009


A wine aerator can be a really amazing tool when it comes to enhancing the flavor of the wine you are going to enjoy. Whether you are a real wine ethusiast or just an occasional wine drinker or never had a glass of wine before, you will definitely be surprised at the possible difference a wine aerator can make. In the old days people were using a wine decanter. It required to open a bottle of wine at least one hour before you were going to drink it – speak of being complicated right here. A wine aerator like the Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator provide the same improvement – within in seconds.

The result? A wine aerator can improve the taste of even the most inexpensive bottles of wine. Now you would think that a Wine Aerator is an expensive tool to have, but you are completely wrong. My personal preference is the Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator. It has a great design and is very affordable (less than $40 the last time I checked at Amazon.com). I got introduced to the Vinturi at a winery in Napa Valley in California. My wine experience has definitely improved since then and it is a tool I do not want to miss anymore.

I do not want to say I am a Vinturi Wine Aerator Evangelist, but I probably am in the eyes of friends and family. I have convinced several people already to get one for them self – it’s kind of easy after a wine experience at my house. A “Before and After” test is easy to do as it only takes seconds to use the Vinturi Wine Aerator. Read my love story about the Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator here.
