Must Have Gadgets And Gifts For Wine Lovers

If you are a wine connoisseur there are some great gadgets and gifts out there for you.  Gadgets that can make your life easier, that can keep the wine at the correct temperature or can cool it down and gadgets that can keep your wine longer. 

Wine

Let's have a look at some of the must-have gadgets and gifts for wine lovers in 2021.

Corkscrew

Although you can buy wine with screw top lids, I think you will agree with me that a corkscrew is a must-have for wine lovers everywhere. For a touch of luxury check out the Peugeot range of quality corkscrews that are designed for ease of living. From rechargeable electric corkscrews to a Sommelier's corkscrew with an integral foil cutter, you will be surprised at the range and depth of corkscrews you can buy. 

Wine cooler

A wine cooler is a useful gadget for any wine lover, especially those that love white wine. White wine is kept cold, either very chilled for light white wines to lightly chilled for oaky white wines. A basic wine cooler is an ice bucket, which you fill with ice and place the wine in to chill, a more advanced wine cooler is an insulated container that is chilled to keep the wine insulated and cold while a more sophisticated wine cooler is similar to a mini-fridge. All of these make a great gift for a wine lover.

Decanter

A wine decanter is a great gift especially for lovers of red wine. A decanter is a vessel usually glass that has an easy to pour neck. Pouring wine from the bottle into the decanter is said to let the wine 'breath' and improve the flavour of wine as well as separate the sediment from the wine. White and red wine can be decanted like this but sparkling wine should not or it will lose its sparkler. Red wine is a good wine to decant as it gains more complex flavour notes at room temperature. 

Wine Saver

When a bottle of wine is open it lets oxygen in and before long it can change the flavour of the wine. Sparkling wine can also become flat. A wine saver is a gadget that removes air from a bottle creating a vacuum seal. This can help the wine preserve its flavour and keep it fresh-tasting for up to a week. A perfect gift for someone that likes the odd glass of wine but doesn't want to drink the whole bottle.

Wine Tasting

My last addition to this list of gadgets and gifts is a voucher for a wine tasting. There are many vineyards around the world, from small boutique wineries to large wine production centres where you can see how grapes are grown, picked and made into wine. Of course, there are also tastings too and any wine lover would really appreciate a visit to a wine tasting. You can even have a virtual wine tasting where wine is delivered to your door. 

As you can see there is a range of must-have gadgets and gifts for wine lovers out there. Let me know, do you love wine or do you know someone who does?
