Tannic, bold, high-alcohol wine contains compounds that can release an undesirable smell, especially when the bottle is first opened. A wine aerator allows the wine to be exposed to oxygen, therefore evaporating the volatile odors and leaving behind more favorable aromatic scents. Young wines may not have an undesirable scent, but they do lack flavor when first opened. Oxygen exposure for young wines help it to become more flavorful and expressive. These are the main reasons that wine aerators are used by many wine enthusiasts.

Many may say that decanting wine for about one to four hours will provide the same result. This is true, however wine aerators can provide the same result in just a few minutes. If you are running short on time, aerators are highly beneficial and useful.

How exactly do wine aerators work? There are two types of aerators, ones that attach to the top of the bottle and others that are standing aerators that you can pour the wine into before reaching the glass. Wine aerators control the flow of wine through a precisely composed tapered chamber that uses pressure to force air through the wine.

Wine aerators are becoming increasingly popular to use worldwide. It saves time, provides oxidation and evaporation for wine and is quite an interesting gadget to look at. Wine aerators come in a variety of different styles. You will even find unique designs and colors that will add design to the bottle and express your unique personality.
