Menu's patented Decanting Pourer filters, splits, and oxygenates the wine as you pour. Goodbye to decanters and too many bottles opened before dinner, and hello to a grand taste sensation - even when the wine is an everyday table variety. Drip-free and easy to use - simply place in the top of the bottle, pour and drink. No more need to wait for your wine to “open up”.
Once you've tried this you'll want to buy one for each of your friends. (We've had customers who've done exactly that!)
So how does it work?
Inside the metal centre section is an hourglass shaped section (see picture above right). As the wine moves from a wide aperture to a narrow aperture it creates the Venturi effect. A vacuum occurs and air is sucked rapidly through the small hole in the side of the pourer. This rush of air oxygenates the wine before it passes through an eight hole filter and into your glass.
This is easily one of Make's favourite products.
