Within minutes this triple action patented designed aerator will have your wine tasting better but without the need to decant. The three stage aeration process really does offer a superior result when compared to products with a single air funnel. No need to wait for superior tasting wine. Popular with wine drinkers and sommeliers at wine tasting events. Firstly, pour your wine over the non-spill umbrella plate and see it fan out and mix with the air. Next, and in order to soften tannins, the wine is filtered through the drizzle stopper plate. Finally, in this funnel stage, air is drawn up as the wine goes through the stopper plate. This is the oxygenation stage as the wine bubbles as it mixes with air.
