Breathe!

I bought this wine aerator on my last Napa wine trip. I think it works just as advertised and really boosts the flavor of the wine. When I bought it, there were four of us tasting. The two men noticed a difference but didn't like the aerated wine. I liked the change and the other woman didn't really notice any difference. My daughter, who has a great palate, wasn't with us when I bought the aerator but I brought it with me on a trip to her house and let her use it. She noticed the difference and liked the aerated wine best. So, you might not want to rush out and buy one, but next time you're at a winery see if they've got one and will demonstrate. We only tested in on reds on our trip but I've found I enjoy the improvement in whites as well.
