Vinturi Wine Aerator


I was given this wine aerator for my birthday. It was from my friends Todd and Suzzane. It is the coolest wine aerator around. it makes a cool gurgling/sucking noise as you pour the wine. There are two holes on the sides that draws air in as you are pouring wine. Below is from the website http://www.vinturi.com. Cost is $39.95

There's a lot of engineering in there bernoulli's principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases. When wine is poured in the vinturi, its design creates an increase in the wine's velocity and a decrease in its pressure. this pressure difference draws in air, which is mixed with wine for perfect aeration.

But what really matters is vinturi's affect on wine.

Better Bouquet
sample the nose. you'll appreciate the subtle aromatic differences and the full aroma of the wine. vinturi allows wine to display its intended aromas.

Enhanced Flavors
go ahead, take a sip. vinturi's wine tastes better. it is more flavorful and has better mouthfeel. it tastes like a richer, more expensive wine. it tastes like it was intended to and is more enjoyable.

Smoother Finishahh. vinturi's aeration is very effective at softening tannins which results in a much more pleasant finish. any bitterness or bad aftertaste is reduced or eliminated.
