There may be other products like this—I don’t know. But I wouldn’t look any further than this one. It aerates and improves the taste of wine immediately. There’s no downside.

Crack resistance and easy to use! Looks amazing and husband loves this so much

Je trouve ce produit très sympa

This "thingy" is quite impressive. When wine runs through it, it sounds like a garden hose! Lots of aeration and air bubbles in the wine.It's about $25 which is a bargain compared to other wine aerators which can cost well over $100.It does not attach to the bottle nor sit on the glass so you have to hold it while you pour. Either set the glass on a table and hold the bottle and aerator over it or hold the glass and aerator in one hand keeping a open gap between the two and pour the wine with the other hand.I have to disclose that I am not completely sold on the idea of mechanically aerating wine. Many people are and this device does work very well. Whether you like what it does to the wine is up to you.

My wife and I are regular red wine drinkers. We do have a nice glass decanter, but only use it when we have a very special bottle. Otherwise we simply open the bottle, let it breathe for a bit, then pour slowly from the bottle to the glass and swill it around in the glass. This unit is much more convenient than having to wash and dry a large glass decanter, and is especially handy if you only want a glass or two although I suspect that an actual glass decanter is going to do a better job. There is evidently a newer version out that holds the unit above your glass, so that's probably a bit nicer. When we first got this, we did a blind tasting and it was easy for me to tell which glass had been aerated with this device and which one was simply poured directly from the bottle. The unit tends to drip after pouring, so be prepared to wipe up some minor spills. It's easy to clean so that makes it convenient to use regularly. We tend to use it with every glass of red now.

Effective when it comes to young tannic grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Nebbiolo to name a few. A double aeration is sometimes necessary. Also a very elegant design which you can bring in a restaurant or at friends

I bought this as a gift for my husband and it really does make the wine taste so much better. This plus decanting.

安くて普通のワインを美味しく楽しめる素敵なエアレータ！是非、騙されたと思って一度試して欲しい！

I bought this as I was starting to drink more wine. Was trying to help my taste buds with reds. This really does work and really does make a difference. Takes some of the "bite" out of most wines.The device itself is attractive, compact and solidly built. It appears to be a simple oblong plexi glass "funnel" with a rubber grip. There are two small channels in the center of the funnel, which look like "cracks" in the plastic (I've read product info that assures worried buyers these cracks are proper and unavoidable). Wine is poured through the top of the funnel, and immediately a suction sound is heard as the pouring draws air into the wine before it escapes out the bottom of the funnel. The aerator is easily held, and I've never had a problem with spills.Now on to the "effect" of the Vinturi. I've been using the Vinturi for 6 months now, on a variety of wines ... In every circumstance, with every wine, I've noticed a significant improvement in the quality of the wine when poured through the Vinturi, as opposed to tasted directly from bottle. The flavours are more blended, the finish is less acidic, and frankly, it has made most of the wines I drink a more pleasurable experience, from sniff to swallow. I've conducted several "blind" tastings with friends, and we all agree - this thing works.If you're a serious wine drinker - or shopping for a wine drinker in your life - give this product a try. At $40, it's about the price of a decent California Cabernet, and will yield results for decades to come. I plan on picking up a few dozen this Christmas and giving them out as gifts to friends and family.

I may have been a little effusive in the title leading you to wonder what does an aerator have to do with economic systems? Well, if the best of capitalism represents an enterprising individual finding a solution to a problem and bringing it to market in such a way that it offers value to consumers, then the Vinturi Aerator is a shining example of it.We all know that wines, particularly red wines, taste better when in contact with the air after the bottle is opened. This is why the second or the third glass always taste better than the first out of a bottle. This is the reason why it is recommend to decant good wines many hours before serving. The air helps with oxidation and opens up the bouquet and taste of wine. Decanters therefore have been used for centuries; and for all these years people have wondered what to do with the wine that is left in them or how to clean them after use.Here comes a product that seeks to turn centuries old conventional wisdom of decanting on its head. The promise of getting the benefits of decanting within seconds in one glass seemed too good to be true. I was skeptical of this product as one is of late night TV commercials of product that tout to accomplish the impossible. But I could not ignore the good reviews this product was garnering and finally decided to give it a try.The Vinturi is beautifully packed. My wife does not share my ardent enthusiasm for wine. Usually I need to urge her to share a bottle with me. But seeing how smart the Vinturi looked and the promise it held, it was she who kept egging me to open a bottle and give this product a try. Finally the weekend arrived and we decided to set up a blind test. I opened a bottle of pinot noir (it is summer after all) and immediately poured into the first glass through the Vinturi and then straight from the bottle into the second glass without the Vinturi. I swirled the wine in the second glass as I generally would to a glass of red wine and let the first glass untouched.I called my wife from the other room to come and taste the two glasses. She tasted the wine and instantly identified the first glass as the one poured through the Vinturi. I was surprised. I smelled and tasted both glasses. The first one clearly had a more open bouquet and fuller taste. The difference between the two glasses was so stark that I could not believe it. The contrast between two glasses was like the polished and tarnished version of the same silver. Well, I am now a convert! This is an excellent product that uses ingenuity and science to aerate wine quicker and in small batches. It is also very smart to look at and you are going to love the sound it makes as you pour wine though it. My wife certainly did. Where all my past coaxing failed, this little device may have turned my wife on to wine and earned me a wine buddy. This is a must-have accessory for anyone who drinks wine! Two thumbs up!

Da ich eher Skeptiker gegenüber Wein-Experten war, habe ich mich vor dem Kauf umfassend über dieses Gerät informiert. Diverse Videos bei YouTube und Artikel später habe ich die Kaufentscheidung getroffen und bei einem Preis von knapp 30€ dachte ich, dass ich es riskieren könnte. Dieses Gerät – und ja, ich bezeichne es als Küchengerät, weil es schon für Nerds ist – nutzt die Regeln der Physik und bringt in den Wein die optimale Menge an Sauerstoff mit einem unverwechselbaren Ton hinein. Völlig ohne Strom o.ä., nur durch das Durchgießen durch das Gerät. Wahnsinn!Das Ergebnis ist überraschend und nicht vergleichbar mit klassischen Dekantierern, die 2-3 Stunden offen stehen müssen, bevor man den Wein trinken soll.Dieses Gerät macht aus einem eher preiswerten Wein einen Wein, der weitaus teurer, vollmundiger und voluminöser schmeckt. Der Unterschied ist bei "billig" Rotweinen enorm. Je teurer der Wein, desto geringer wird der erzielte Unterschied.Fazit: Ich kann dieses Gerät uneingeschränkt empfehlen, denn für dieses Preis hat man sehr viel und sehr lange seinen Spaß damit – auch beim Eingießen und den Blicken der Gäste !
