Why Use a Wine Bottle Aerator?

If you like your wine and you drink it on a regular basis, you’ll probably have invested in some equipment to go with it – a nice corkscrew perhaps, and a wine rack to display your best bottles in. But what about a wine bottle aerator? Do you have one of these in your collection?

Some people are completely puzzled when it comes to aerators. They may not have heard of it at all, and if they have they might think it is a gimmick that they’ll only ever see waiters using.

But this isn’t the case, and it might be worth considering whether you should invest in a wine bottle aerator for your own home. Let’s look at what it does and why you should use one.

Isn’t this just a sales gimmick?

You’d be forgiven for thinking this but in fact it’s a great way to ensure you get the most out of every bottle of wine you open.

The whole idea of aerating a bottle of wine is that the wine is left to interact with the air. Now some people think all they have to do is uncork the bottle. But when you think about how tiny the neck of the average wine bottle really is you can see that only a very tiny amount is aerated in this way.

A better way is to pour out a glass and let it sit for a bit, but even then you don’t get the best results – not even if you swill the wine around in the glass. The best way is to use an aerator, because it has been designed to get the maximum amount of air in touch with the wine itself.

So you might now be convinced that this is no gimmick. It is simply a way of getting the best flavors to come out of the wine that has been corked up for so long.

Does it really improve the flavor of your wine?

Yes it does, and this is the whole reason to get one. The good news is that an aerator is totally reusable, so once you have one you’ll never have to buy another one.

If you read anything at all about wine you’ll know that the air helps the flavors to be released. But if you decant a bottle of wine the old fashioned way – that is, leaving it to sit for a while – you could be waiting a long time to savor it at its best. If you aerate it using one of these special pieces of equipment you can enjoy your wine far sooner than you would otherwise. It releases all those flavors and ensures that you can always get the most out of every bottle you buy.

Some people still feel it isn’t worth buying one of these aerators to use at home. But in truth, until you have tasted how much better a wine can be using a wine bottle aerator, you won’t realize what an essential piece of equipment this is.
