Simple yet effective aerate your wine with this simple pourer
How does Aeration work?
Aeration works by allowing the wine to oxidise.
The increased oxidation softens the tannins and seems to smooth out the wine.
Aerating plays a huge part in enhancing your drinking experience; first off, it releases a wine's beautiful aroma. The aeration creates bubbles this increases the surface area allowing the wine to show off its beautiful scents.
While in the bottle, wine is reacting with oxygen and constantly changing, just at a slower rate than when it's out ofI the bottle.
in a sense, aerating wine is mimics or speeds up the wine's ageing, so effectively giving you a snapshot of the wine's cellaring potential.
And of course, this means you are going to get the very best out of the wine you are drinking today!
So, if you're tucking into a beautiful full-bodied red like our Reserve Shiraz or Petit Verdot or have a certain penchant for our Museum Wines, make sure you aerate them before you drink them.
A marvellous way of not having to decant a whole bottle is by using one of these amazing pourers. It aerates your wine as you pour! And the best bit...if you haven't finished the bottle, you've only aerated the wine your drinking.
If you aerate wine by decanting the bottle and don't finish the bottle, as you've speeded up the ageing process the wine is unlikely to be any good the next day.
