Drink a Wine Before Its Time http://twitter.com/chrispirillo - If you drink wine, or you know someone who drinks wine, you're going to want this little gadget. Essentially, the Vinturi Essential Wine Aerator instantly breathes any wine poured through it. I didn't want to believe it could work, but it does. If you took a sip of Vinturi-funneled wine vs. non-Vinturi-funneled wine, even YOU would taste the difference (with an unrefined palate).
