Shall we Dacantus?
We’ve written before about the benefits of decanting wine. We’ve even highlighted the Vinturi Wine Aerator, a nifty little product that does glass by glass decanting. Well, I came across the ‘Decantus’ recently and thought it was an interesting, if not similar version of the much-lauded Vinturi… albeit with a larger target to aim for… I like that when it comes to red wine!
Decantus maximizes the intensity of flavor for each and every glass of wine that flows through it, by injecting oxygen directly into the liquid. The process allows the wine to open up quickly, showcasing an amazingly different bouquet almost instantly. Through an innovative approach of exposing the wine to oxygen (letting it breathe), Aerating assists in expressing wine’s true character; the taste and balance the winemaker intended.
Decantus can be purchased at the Bite of the Best shop, other online retailers or it can also be found in local wine and spirit stores.
I have found the Soiree bottle top model to be the best in this class as it is really simple to use and really lets your bottle breathe instantly rather than having to decant your bottle of red hours in advance.
Our hugely popular red wine aerator provides a more enhanced flavor and soothing finish. After pouring it into the aerator, it undergoes pressure differences, subsequently mixing the wine with air. This aerator represents an extremely useful and convenient tool for any wine enthusiast ultimately guaranteeing the perfect mixture.
