Not so! My family and I put the Vinturi Red Wine Aerator to the test last night. We took a fairly inexpensive bottle of Italian red wine and did a taste test. Before using the Aerator, the wine was good but was a little rough around the edges (not a technical term). Then we refilled our glasses with the wine poured through the Aerator and the wine really came to life. It was a little lighter and definitely a bit more delicate. This is the perfect gadget to use when you are hosting guests and can't afford to buy all expensive wine. You can purchase this gadget at the Vinturi website and Sur la Table.
The Wine is Not Aged When a wine has aged for a decade or more it is common for sediment to have developed. When this occurs, it is wise to decant the entire bottle of wine to break up the sediment. This process is not really needed with a newer vintage and that is when a wine aerator is used to allow for a quick release of the finest qualities of the wine.
