Accessories

For many people, the glass is the only accessory used to drink wine.

But, next to the glass, there is a number of other accessories that complete the experience of wine-tasting.

There is a great offer of wine acessories. They come in a variety of models and shapes. You can choose between common and designer pieces and find them in packages or apiece. The regular packages contain cork opener, foil remover and eventually, thermometer.

Let's start from the beginning...

1. WAX REMOVER

2. FOIL REMOVING KNIFE

 

3. BOTTLE OPENER

4. THERMOMETER

 

5. FUNNEL

Funnel is often used to filtrate the wine that has sediments, when pouring wine from the bottle into the decanter. It is also used to air wine.

 

6. DRIP RING

 

7. CORK

 

8. DECANTER

Decanter is a must be for great, character wine, older wine, wine that is bottled without being filtrated, wine with sediments and barrique wine. When you taste wine that belong to these categories, you should use decanter. Under discussion are also white wines that have the above mentioned characteristics. There is no use of decanting young, simple wines because the decanter is not an accessory to serve wine (although many think it is very elegant to serve wine like that), and the decanter should be used only for special kinds of wine.
