Food & Spirits: Philip Stein, a brand synonymous with frequency-based technology innovations, has done it again, this time applying its specialty in an unexpected direction: wine. The company has introduced the Wine Wand -- a revolutionary tool that perfectly aerates wine in mere minutes instead of hours, allowing you to readily enjoy the true taste of the wine as intended by its maker.
When placed into a bottle or glass of red wine, the Wine Wand accelerates the aeration (breathing) process, allowing the wine to fully develop to its peak flavor in a fraction of the time it would usually take. I have to say I was a bit skeptical about this claim that, frankly, sounded too good to be true. However, after trialing the product with various varietals and vintages, I'm a true believer along with a litany of other oenophiles and sommeliers who have lauded the invention.
For those curious scientific minds, here's how it works: wine must aerate or "breathe" for a period of time to reduce the alcohol vapors, tannins and acidity needed to restore the wine to its intended flavor. Using permanently embedded natural frequencies, including oxygen, the tool accelerates the aeration of the wine to its full flavor potential -- in just minutes. Really.
Presented as an elegant glass tube with encapsulated glass crystals and a faceted spherical top, the Philip Stein Wine Wand is as attractive as it is functional. It's available in both a long bottle and short travel/glass size, so enjoying a perfect glass of wine is possible wherever you are. Stylish travel case designs are available in alligator, crocodile and python embossed leather in beautiful jewel-tone hues, as well as authentic black carbon fiber.
The Philip Stein Wine Wand is available at RONROBINSON and other fine retailers across the country for $325 for the travel size and $525 for the bottle size.
