11 Gadgets Every Wine Lover Needs Immediately

Vinluxe PRO Wine Aerator, $19, Amazon

In order to unlock the true potential of certain wines you have to wait for them to "open up," which can take hours. To soften tannins almost immediately try Amazon's top aerator. Just pouring a glass through this device will causes oxidation and evaporation, which can coax dense and concentrated wines to relax and show their true colors. It can be used with any type of wine, but is particularly helpful for young reds such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Barbera, and Montepulciano that can be highly tannic. Your wines will thank you for this treatment.

Coravin Model One Wine System, $200, Amazon

No need to pop the cork to try a glass of wine with this high tech gadget. According to Wine Spectator, this wine preserving device actually does work. The gizmo sneakily inserts a needle into the wine bottle, pressurizing the interior with argon gas while sucking up wine up through the needle and pouring it into your glass. The inert gas doesn't react with anything, so the bouquet of your booze is preserved as the winemaker intended for when you do finally decide to uncork it.

For every second the metal alloy disk makes contact with your wine it "ages" it by one year, no cellar needed. A gadget doesn't have to be electric to be cool — sometimes simple chemistry is just as impressive.
