Okay all wine drinkers out there, my aunt is a big wine freak and i thought this would be a cute add on to a gift basket im making her but is it safe? and is it good? does it work?
--------------------
Save your money. There are numerous wine-related gadgets of dubious use. If your aunt is a big wine-freak and she is going to use this then she'll already have one. The purpose of this device is to keep left-over wine by pumping in inert gases into the bottle to replace oxygen with the aim of stopping the left-over wine going bad. First question is whether your aunt has left over wine that she want to keep. And if she does she'd be better off putting the cork back and putting the bottle in the fridge. I don't know any wine experts who use such a device. So what can you get for a wine -lover? Its difficult because we tend to already have what we want. Some ideas - A bottle of Champagne. No wine lover ever has too much Champagne. Riedel glasses. Riedel make superb wine glasses with many different shapes for each grape variety. And they are very thin and very fragile, so even if you get a glass shape she already has, it won;t matter. You cannot have to many Riedels since they break so often when being washed. They're pronounced 'reedel' and you can buy them on Amazon - see http://www.riedel.com My book of amusing and unusual wine labels :) - http://www.amazon.com/dp/1594740992?tag=
