Description |
| From vinturi, the deluxe aerator set consists of the new vinturi tower and the sensational vinturi red wine aerator. The set has a two piece design which makes it simple to clean and simple to store (even though you'll would like to keep this stunning set out in full view). Tower features a trendy no-splash grate which eliminates mess. Vinturi has been a sensation for the reason that it works. Red wine needs to breathe to agree to it to open up, open its designed aromas, and of course, do it taste better. Vinturi's patent pending design speeds up this process by instantly aerating together with ease and convenience. Taste your wine the way the winemaker designed. It brings recognizable innovations immediately: better bouquet, increased flavors and smoother finish. Ideal aeration in the time it takes to pour a glass! It couldn't be easier. Vinturi aerator sits on top of tower allowing for simple, hands-free operation. The glossy, clear acrylic is elegant and clean. But do note this there are two slight fold lines in the vinturi aerator this expand upward from every air hole. These are normal. During manufacturing, material folds all-around rods and wraps back, and this causes the fold lines. Together products are dishwasher safe. |

 everything it promised 2010-08-29 |

| The vinturi is the third we have purchased (for ourselves and for gifts). It does exactly as advertised making wine right out of the bottle taste like it's been opening for an hour or more. We love it and so do the people we gave them to for gifts. |
 Helpful, but not magic 2010-08-26 |
| By C. Hafer (New Carrollton, MD United States) |
Don't expect a miracle, but it does help. I usually let a good glass of red wine sit for about an hour to an hour and a half before drinking it. The Vinturi product cannot match this, however, it is equivalent to letting wine sit for about 15 to 20 minutes. If that's what you are used to doing, you'll be happy. If you really let your wine age properly, you won't be happy unless you are simply using the device to speed up the process. Using the Vinturi and then letting the wine sit for an hour produces a nice wine. It can cut about 30 minutes off the normal process without the aerator.
I tested the device on four bottles of good reasonably priced wines. They were -
1) Bogel Old Vine Zinfandel (2007) - full body, very good Zin $11
2) Rodney Strong Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon (2007) - very good Cabernet that needs some air $18
3) Shenandoah Vineyards Zinfandel Special Reserve (2008) - very nice full body zin $10
4) Grand Pacific Vineyards Heritage Red table Wine (2007) - surprisingly decent inexpensive and easily drinkable $7
The aerator worked to some degree on all of the wines, but on the full bodied Cabs and Zins, it really couldn't begin to compete with letting a glass of wine sit in a wide glass for 90 minutes. For the table wine, it did a better job, but there was still a noticeable difference between letting it age naturally and using the aerator. Blind tests on all of the wines showed modest improvements over drinking the wine straight out of the bottle, but also showed significant difference between aerating and further aging.
Next point, the tower is a joke. It enhances splattering instead of preventing it. The only way to use the tower and stop splatter is to jam the opening below the rim of the glass. Without the tower, the device isn't bad. |
| Great Kit 2010-08-07 |
| By Jason S. Wrench (Kingston, NY) |
| I bought this kit for a friend's birthday, and he loves it. I've used it and it's amazing at how quickly it aerates wine. I would recommend this for any wine enthusiast. |
| Great gift 2010-07-19 |

| Great gift for party giver. Pricey if not on special. Not sure how much it may improve the taste of the wine - but is fun to use. |
| Vinturi Delux set 2010-07-02 |
| By Scott Lewin |
| I had used this at a friend's house and it worked great. So much so that I went out and got one. One of the things that was also nice is if there is a bunch of sediment in the wine that this helps to filter it. Also you can tell the difference when you use it. I would recommend it |
