Review of RSVP International Endurance Stainless Steel Wine Glasses Set of 2

Review of Nuance Wine Finer with Flat Top

The wine finer works great to aerate a bottle of wine, but that's not even my favorite feature.Finally, my days of wiping a wine bottle edge with a napkin after each pour are over, and gone too is the risk that it will drip onto the carpet!The metal edge does a terrific job of keeping all the wine in the bottle unless it goes straight to the glass.

Product Description:
The subtle taste nuance of a fine red wine only comes out when the wine is thoroughly oxidized. This is easily and elegantly taken care of by the Nuance Wine Finer. In just 30 seconds you can decant a whole bottle of red wine while pouring it into the glasses. The elegant pourer filters out all sediments, pieces of cork and tartar, while a rushing sound of bubbles gives evidence of the efficient oxidizing process. The drip catcher ensures that not a drop is spilled instead the wine runs back into the bottle. A small close-fitting lid keeps any leftover wine fresh for later use. A beautiful, simple and multifunctional pourer, that completely means you never have to apologize that the wine was not uncorked before the guests arrived.

Review of Metrokane Rabbit 6-Piece Wine-Tool Kit, Black

I could *not* believe my eyes the first time I saw someone use a Rabbit. I've shredded SO many corks and even broken bottles trying to get corks out. I've tried so many different kinds of corkscrews (and the two-pronged non-screw-type cork-pullers), and I've been all kinds of frustrated. I'm a big and strong guy, and I've still been frustrated at how hard some corkscrews are to use.
Enter the Rabbit. It's hard to visualize from the picture, but it is SUPER-EASY, once you figure it out.
1) Flip the top over, away from the cork, raising the screw (sometimes called the "worm")
2) Place the two handles on either side of the bottle-neck, positioning the tip of the worm over the cork.
3) Squeeze the handles together to hold the bottle.
4) Bring the top handle up and over, which pushes the worm into the cork -- so easy you can't believe it.
5) Take the top handle back to where it started, and the cork is out! No muss, no fuss, no cuss!

Removing the cork from the worm is just as easy:
6) Bring the top handle back over, as if to put the cork back in the bottle, only without the bottle there.
7) Squeeze the side handles around/on the cork.
8) Bring the top handle back away to remove the worm, while holding the cork with the side handles.

Okay, the ad says "3 seconds". I put closer to five seconds, plus ten more to remove the cork. This is the easiest and best corkscrew I've ever used, and I'd say it's WELL worth the price. The "gift set" is nice, but personally, I don't think it's worth the extra price compared to just the Rabbit without the gift set. I do, however, recommend the Metrokane "Save-the-Wine" Vacuum Pump.

Oh, one more thing -- I've heard other people say that it doesn't work well on the new plastic-style "corks", but I haven't had any problems.It works great on them for me.

Review of Vacu Vin Guy Buffet Rapid Ice Wine Chiller

There are few other viable ways of cooling a bottle down quickly that are this effortless. Slide the sleeve on (stick in freezer or not), wait, cork, and drink.
Besides this main feature, the chiller can serve two other purposes. First, after corking and pouring the first round of glasses, the chiller can serve in place of a more expensive metal bucket or crystal chiller. Second, the chiller is great for bring bottles of white wine to friends' homes that you want to share immediately. Many people start with whites and if you are bringing a room-temperature white, it's annoying having to wait for it to chill in the freezer. Those 15-30 minutes may see your bottle passed over and forgotten. But with the Rapid Ice chiller, you can arrive with a bottle that's ready to drink immediately, even if traveling to your friends' took a while.

Review of Nicholas VinOair Wine Aerator

I have used this aerator on about 6 bottles of wine and tried the taste before and after using this product. It works as per description and the spout is great for pouring without drops. The areated wine tastes better than just out of the bottle. I now use it on all wine bottles I open.

The reason Igive it 4 and not 5 stars is that the other popular product - Vinturi - which I have also used, areates the wine more than this unit. The other item - Vinturi - aerators more but leaves a lot of mess behind in terms of spills and drops due to the way it is supposed to be used.

Review of Respirer Next Generation Wine Aerator

The Respirer (pronounced "res-pea-AIR") is a new entry into the increasingly crowded single-serving wine aerator market segment.Unique features:

* Cast Acrylic material is seamless, elegant and durable
* Vortex Impedance Control provides uniform aeration
* The Respirer can be placed on the bottle after use to catch drips

A minor area of improvement I mention in the video is the stand. It tends to suction to the counter when wet, and when wine drips into the stand it tends to splatter a bit.

I give the product a favorable review in this video clip. Feel free to leave me a comment if you have questions- I'll check back and follow up. Thanks for watching!


Click Here to see more reviews about: Respirer Next Generation Wine Aerator

Product Description:
Respirer, which is French for breathe, was developed using engineering based on core scientific principles. It's better than a wine decanter. A beautifully crafted combination of art and science, Simply hold it over a glass and pour the wine through, mixing the proper amount of air in the right amount of time. The result is a better bouquet, richer flavor, and smoother finish.

How it Works:
When you pour into the aerator the wine flows into a conditioning device called the VIC, (Vortex Impedance Control). It conditions the wine so that it doesn't swirl and it presents the wine to the proprietary pressure chamber in a consistent smooth flow. As the wine enters the pressure chamber, its downward flow caused by gravity increases, which creates a vacuum affect. This vacuum draws in air through the side air intake channel. At this point the real work begins.

Now the wine and air mixture exits the chamber and enters a tapered section of the fluid tube that increases fluid speed and further decreases the pressure in the tube. This decrease in pressure "tugs" on the air bubbles causing them to want to expand. So now we have the fluid-air mixture speeding up and the bubbles wanting to expand, however everything is being forced into a smaller and smaller cross-section.

While the bubbles expand as they encounter the reduced cross-section of tube the bubbles collide. and force the wine to be squeezed between each other resulting in a high degree of oxygenation. The collisions are often so extraordinary that they create fractures in the bubbles and they burst. The result is many smaller bubbles with much greater surface area touching and oxygenating the wine. Then wine passes through the diffuser, which causes turbulence, separation and further wine aeration. Finally the aerated wine flows and into your glass.

All this occurs in a blink of an eye. Pretty amazing. Enjoy!

Review of Waring Pro WWO100 Cordless Wine Opener, Professional Quality

I wish I could give this a higher rating but am hesitant to do so.I was excited to receive this package in the mail...I loved the idea of opening a bottle of wine after a long, difficult day with just the push of a button.I will start off by stating the foil cutter works very well and this device has a nice little cubby to keep the cutter when not in use.The inside workings seem to be made out of a cheap plastic.I have opened three bottles of wine I had in the fridge just to make sure before I gave a review.The first took at least five attempts to get the cork fully removed from the bottle.I decided I might not had charged the opener fully before use so I charged for 10 hours or more before using again.It did seem to work a little better the second and third time around but still requires two or three attempts for the cork to be removed or loosened from the bottle enough for me to then be able to remove the cork the rest of the way with my hand.Wish I could give this a better rating.I think this is a great idea but the one I purchased just does not seem to have enough power to remove the cork from the bottle properly.

Review of Cork Pops Original Wine Bottle Opener

I just adore this wine opener. I have gone through one refill already and am on my 2nd. That equals something like 200 bottles of wine or who knows how many. It's a great opener. I never touch the other openers any more, and I have many. I was highly skeptical at first (will it be too noisy, too gimmicky? will the gas change the wine in some way?), but it is just so easy to use and you get a perfect opening every time. No cork problems. I love this thing. It also works well on the synthetic corks, though you have to push pretty hard to get the needle through those things.

Review of Ravi Solution Instant Wine Chiller

Pros:
-Easy to Use: Although there are quite a few pieces that make up the Ravi Solution, it is actually very easy to use.
-Effective: Instantly drops the temperature of any wine by 10F-15F bringing it to a more enjoyable drinking temperature.
-Versatile: Useful in the summer months when red wines at room temperature approach 80F (to bring them down to the mid-60s) -or- if you have a single temperature wine refrigerator set at 55F to drop the temperature down to around 45F.

Cons:
-A little pricey: This is definitely a convenience item and similar results can be attained with a little time in the fridge. However, I've found it quite useful and I'm glad I own one.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Ravi Solution Instant Wine Chiller

Product Description:
Ravi is based on the innovative concept of cooling wine at the very moment it is served. It is not the bottle that is cooled, but the wine itself. The cooling process takes place as the wine passes through an internal tube in the Ravi. Use of the valve allows you to regulate the amount of time the wine is cooled. The internal tube of the Ravi is made from the same stainless steel used for wine fermentation tanks and maintains the wine's characteristics and never alters the taste. The Ravi will cool wine within seconds which means no more waiting and no more messy ice buckets to contend with. Since not all wines are enjoyed at the same temperature, Ravi has a valve that controls the flow of wine to regulate the temperature. Store the Ravi in the freezer, when needed place the Ravi into your wine bottle and in mere seconds you can savor your wine cooled to exactly the right temperature. Unfortunately, red wines are usually served too warm and the alcohol tends to predominate, concealing the fruit of the wine. Ravi enables your wine to instantly go from room temperature to that of a wine cellar. When enjoying a white wine or a rose, the Ravi can cool your wine to perfection. The Ravi was born from two years of work with oenologists, designers and other wine-making specialists. To use, simply keep the Ravi in the freezer so it is ready to go. When needed, insert the Ravi into the bottle neck as you would a cork, and pour. The wine is chilled as it passes through the frozen stainless steel tube. The air hole or valve allows you to control the temperature drop. Covering the hole slows the flow of the wine, the more time it spends in the Ravi, the colder your wine will get. Hand wash. Made in Canada.

Review of Cork Pops Legacy Wine Bottle Opener, Black

this wine opener is definitely a very cool little gadget to ooh and aah guests, but it does not always work on every bottle.some corks are too long for the needle to puncture the entire length, so you are left to resort back to a screw opener.also the foil cutter works well but makes the gadget a bit large and bulky to work with.perhaps using a traditional foil cutter and the corkpops model without built-in cutter would be more convenient.otherwise, a great little tool, and surprising how fast the cork just pops right out when it does.:)nice little gift for wine lovers.

Review of Oxo Steel CorkPull Wine Opener/Corkscrew

After getting my finger pinched on a brass winged corkscrew I decided it was time to research a different design in wine openers.Considered an electric corkscrew but didn't want another item on my counter...plus they seem so TALL.This one is 6 3/4" tall and I think quite attractive in my kitchen tool drawer.
I chose this OXO model because I like OXO products and it appeared more sturdy than the less expensive plastic model.
It works effortlessly.You just place on the bottle turn and turn and keep turning the same direction and the cork comes all the way out.Reverse the turns to remove the cork. And best of all, no pinching or pulling.
My only minor quibble is the foilcutter top is harder to get off than I would like.You squeeze the two indented "buttons" on the sides with one hand while lifting the top off with the other.The top is 2 3/4" wide.I can't squeeze both buttons with one hand so I have to press with my thumb, releasing one side then turn it over and press the other to remove the foilcutter.A man with larger hands and more strength probably could do it in one move.I would still highly recommend this corkscrew or cork pull or whatever you want to call this wine opener.

Product Description:
A variation on a classic design, the Oxo Steel CorkPull removes corks from your favorite wines without requiring strain or clumsy postures. Whereas most corkscrews slide in and then call for prying, the CorkPull removes a cork by rotating in the same direction until it is lifted out. An oversized turning knob with a soft grip adds in the action, and a handy foil cutter is built into the design. Made from die-cast stainless steel for durability, the CorkPull stands up to frequent use and cleans up easily by hand. For coordinating wine tools, check out Oxo's pour spouts and stoppers.

Review of Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator - Black

I was very excited about the product because sometimes I noticed big improvement of wine taste they are aerated, but I rarely have the time to decant wine.So this seems a perfect solution.

So I did a good number of blind tasting of about 4 wines.For two of the four wines, my friend and I could tell the improvement of taste--smoother and richer in flavor.Four the others, we couldn't tell the difference.

So it seems it works for some wines but not other.

There is a trick to improve the effect of aeration--pour the wine quickly so there is more wine accumulated in the funnel, which increases the fluid pressure and draws in more air.This requires a bit practice, but seems to improve the effect of aeration for me.I prefer the aeration to be on the stronger side.

Review of WMF Vino Stainless-Steel 4-Way Funnel

Facts: The diameter of the aerating tube inserting a decanter is about 18mm or 3/4 inches. The diameter of the top funnel is 90mm or 3.5 inches. This won't insert to a neck of regular wine bottle -- you need a decanter. The straining mesh is just sitting inside the funnel and is removable. The two pieces making this product are easy to hand wash.
This product does aeration and filtration at the same time. Aeration is often used with young to medium aged red wine to smooth out the tannic flavor and possibly improve the integrity of the wine. Filtration is often used to remove solid material (twig, etc) often contained in bottles from more serious price range, and sediment formed from well aged wines. Some reds might even benefit from double decanting with aeration at each decanting. With this funnel, it is very easy and clean to do. White wines very rarely benefit from these steps, but this funnel at least looks great especially with a nice decanter.
This funnel can also be useful with other purposes, like removing spice and other solid material from drinks, sauces and broths.

Product Description:
Crafted of polished stainless steel, this decanting funnel makes pouring wine from a bottle into a carafe so, so much easier. Simply rest the funnel in the neck, insert the filter to catch any dregs and sediment, and pour! There are eight tiny holes in the "stem" which aerate the wine as it is poured. This funnel could also be used for straining sauces, mulled cider and more.

Review of Oster FPSTBW8100 Wine Vacuum Cork with LCD Display

I purchased this as a gift for my mother. It's a bit of a special purpose item that may not be suitable for everyone. The entire thing is one "cork" and must stay on the wine bottle to function. This was perfect for my mother, as she'll only ever have one wine bottle open at a time. Wine-tasting types, though, would probably prefer one of the more expensive vacuum cork machines that can seal multiple bottles.

The Oster Vacuum Wine Cork seems to work exactly as advertised. The initial use was a little confusing. After installing the two AAA batteries that came in the package, the expectation was that the buttons would do something when pressed, the display would light, or something to indicate that it was "on". On the contrary, nothing will function until the device is actually one the wine bottle (which is actually pretty intelligent in retrospect). Once on the bottle, the top button will initiate the vacuum sequence, which takes approximately 60 seconds to complete (the LCD display shows a countdown). After the vacuum seal has been created the LCD display will show the temperature of the wine to (to one/tenth degree) in either Fahrenheit or Celsius (toggled via the button directly below the display). The bottom-most button releases the vacuum seal (another 60-second countdown cycle).

All in all, the device seems to function very well and creates a tight seal even before the vacuum. My mother has only had the vacuum cork a few days now, so I can't speak to how reliable it will be over time. Nevertheless, construction seems to be of good quality.

Product Description:
The perfect housewarming gift or token of appreciation for a host or hostess, this handheld electronic wine vacuum cork removes air from opened bottles of wine and creates a tight seal to maintain freshness--no more pouring left-over wine down the drain at the end of a party or need to hesitate opening a bottle when dining alone. To use, simply remove the bottom cap, place the handy gadget on top of the neck of an opened bottle, and, while holding the bottle securely with one hand, push firmly down and twist slightly to secure the seal with the other hand. The pump will activate automatically. In the first stage, the automatic vacuum pump evacuates excess air from inside the bottle. In the second stage, its blue LCD display counts down from 60 seconds, then the air pump stops, and the display shows the wine's current temperature in degrees F (can also be switched to degrees C). Other thoughtful design details include a built-in thermometer, a low-battery indicator, and a pressure-release button for effortlessly removing the vacuum cork when it's time to pour a glass. Requiring two AAA batteries for operation (included), the wine vacuum cork measures 2-2/7 by 2-2/7 by 4-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Review of Vacu Vin Concerto 5-Piece Wine Saver Set with 4 Stoppers

The wine saver is great in so many ways. Obviously it's wonderful to be able to open a bottle of wine and have it stay good for a day or two, especially if you just like one glass with dinner. This lets you open up and enjoy more expensive wine since you won't waste the whole rest of the bottle. If you are interested in learning about wines, you'll probably want to open up 2 or more wines at a time to compare them, and this way you won't waste anything. The wine saver will keep the undrunk portion until the next time.I do recommend putting the bottle in the fridge if you don't drink it the next day. Just pull the bottle out an hour before you want to drink it if it's red.

Review of Riedel Ouverture Red Wine Glass, Set of 2

We have used these glasses daily for several years for casual drinking. We have tall, tippy, more stylish ones for showy dinner parties, that require hand washing. These, in contrast, not only fit the hand well, but also the top shelf of the dishwasher, and after countless cycles they are still shiny (not acquiring the "foggy" etched surface that all of our previous glasses did). This purchase was to replace broken glasses and to expand the collection.The size is an acceptable compromise for red and white wines, but we prefer the Reidel Ouverture Magnums for reds. They too have proven to be dishwasher durable. A great product.

Review of Metrokane Vacuum Wine Stoppers, Set of 4

I originally purchased the Houdini Wine Preserver Pump and Stopper Set from Target, and it came with two stoppers.Well, I found myself needing more than two stoppers so I purchased the Metrokane Vacuum Wine Stoppers, Set of 4.These are the same brand, Metrokane, as the Houdini stoppers.That wasn't very clear at first, but after a bit of research, I determined they were the same brand and interchangeable.

These work great, as did the original ones I bought from Target.I've never had one fail to hold a seal.I make sure that after each use, I rinse them in warm water so the ridges that seal stay soft.I've had a bottle of dessert wine in the fridge for months (don't know if its good anymore), but the seal has held.

Review of Wine Saver gift pack black

This device is perfect for anyone who finds that they don't consume an entire bottle of wine at one sitting and would like to preserve the wine for as long as possible without it ruining.Wine can be an expensive luxury and there is nothing worse than having it turn to vinegar due to improper storage.This device is amazingly simple to use and works perfectly.Simply insert one of the rubber stoppers into the open bottle of wine, place the pump over the top and pump about 5 to 6 times until you hear a distinctive "clicking" sound and you are done.All of the excess oxygen in the bottle has now been removed and the wine is vacuum sealed.When ready to re-serve the wine, simply press the nib on top of the stopper to release the vacuum, remove and serve. It couldn't be any easier or simpler.Well worth the price and you may want to consider purchasing the extra stoppers if you tend to have more than a couple of bottles open at any one time.

The drip catcher ensures that not a drop is spilled instead the wine runs back into the bottle. A small close-fitting lid keeps any leftover wine fresh for later use. A beautiful, simple and multifunctional pourer, that completely means you never have to apologize that the wine was not uncorked before the guests arrived.

Review of Oenophilia Label Lift Wine Label Remover, 10 Pack

I expected to be disappointed with these, as reviews are SO varied.I was quite happy overall with their use, though.for just about ANY wine bottle using paper-y labels, this is 'the ticket' to go with to remove the labels nicely.

In all, once you get used to it, it really takes VERY little time to do, despite these long explanations.I am pleased with their ability to remove a bunch of types of labels (albeit not all), I simply think $1/sheet is a trifle lot to pay for what amounts to a large piece of tape.

My method for using these label removers:
Basically, just follow the directions IN the labels package.

1. placer sticker across label from one side to the other, carefully and slowly to get it as flat as possible.as the directions state, leave at least a 1/4" border (i tend to leave more if possible on all edges)
2. use back of large spoon to push out any airbubbles AND to get it to adhere as tightly as possible to the actual label. (pay special attention to the sides and corners of the label, and rub with the spoon until you're certain EVERY portion has been secured).
3. Wait.... it says you can wait only 2 minutes, but I prefer to wait at least 2 hours, and sometimes overnight for those labels i REALLY want to be sure I can peel off without a glitch.I also tend to do repeated 'pressings' of the spoon at random intervals.
4. I tend to peel from the 'tabbed' side of the sticker... slowly.if you see the corner come up, then keep going.If you see right away that a corner or piece is NOT coming up...STOP. try pushing it down with a spoon again and WAIT again.
5. If you are halfway through the label, and you notice a piece that won't come up properly, try peeling from the other direction.
6. Once you get the entire label off, trim the sides to desired width and press-in-place into your desired label journal.

REMEMBER: these label removers remove the actual paper label from their original adhesive backing... this removal method does NOT work for embossed, metallic, or engraved labels/bottles.So don't expect it to do so.Shiny/high-gloss labels can also prove tricky, but if I let the sticker sit longer (overnight), and press repeated times with the spoon, I'm usually able to get them off.

Review of Riedel O Tumblers, Set of 2

These are essentially the bowls from the professional quality Riedel Vinum glasses produced without stems. By doing without stems you get a glass that neatly fits in the dishwasher, and save about $10 per glass compared to the stemmed Riedel. I have been using these for several months and they are fabulous. Since they are non-lead crystal, they develop the bouquet due to microscopic "pores" that non-crystal glassware lacks. They really gleam, right out of the dishwasher. Best of all, the rims are thin and smooth, which is the luxury feel that premium glassware is all about.

If you are wondering which to buy as an "all purpose" red glass, I prefer the syrah/shiraz glass over the cabernet/merlot, even though I drink mostly cabernet. The syrah glass is just a bit taller and more graceful. But the difference is minor.

I have been a wine "nut" for over 20 years, and these glasses are teriffic. Buy them, and feel safe using them daily. They will improve the enjoyment of every wine you drink, from Gallo to Lafite
