Guide Review - Vinturi Wine Aerator

The Vinturi comes in pretty packaging and includes a classy little stand. To use the Vinturi all that's required is pouring the wine through the gadget into the glass and wah-lah... you have yourself a fresh aerated wine that is ready to play immediately. No wait, no mess, just a quick pour and you are in business. The result is a wine that has fuller aroma, a deeper, richer flavor profile and softer more malleable tannins ending in a smoother finish and a better wine experience overall.
