Metrokane Rabbit Wine Opener Gift Set, Silver

Reproduce flawless openings with multiple tools. The ultimate all-in-one wine corkscrew set for all your wine service needs. You get everything you need for wine bottle opening and service in this convenient and affordable Rabbit Corkscrew set from Metrokane. The 6-piece corkscrew kit includes the world-famous Rabbit Corkscrew, foil cutter, drip-stop drip ring, worm, wine/champagne sealer, and wax remover. The Rabbit Corkscrew was redesigned with an all new precision metal gear mechanism for even smoother and more reliable wine bottle opening. Of all the corkscrews on the market, you won't find one better or more efficient This corkscrew is synthetic cork friendly

A great gift for a wine lover, this powerful, award-winning tool effortlessly extracts the cork from any wine bottle in 3 seconds with simple lever action. Handles with comfortable rubberized padding easily clamp onto a bottle's neck; the lever drives the tough worm into the cork with a push and then pulls the cork out cleanly with a simple pull. Releasing the cork involves the same action, only with the handles clamped onto the cork. Ruggedly constructed of polycarbonate and reinforced nylon, the cork puller has the heft of a fine, precise high-tech tool and comes by its name, Rabbit, because it resembles a bunny's head. Metrokane corkscrews are independently tested for 20,000 cork pulls; tests assume replacement of the spiral after 1,000 pulls.

This model of the Rabbit has a velvety, silver finish, as do the four tools accompanying it. The tools include a squeeze-and-twist foil cutter to strip away the foil covering a cork, a drip-stop ring that fits onto any size wine bottle to prevent stains on table linen, a sealer that twists so tightly into any size bottle's neck it preserves even Champagne bubbles, and a "wax whacker" that flips the wax tablet off a wine cork. Also included is a replacement worm--the installed worm wears out after 20,000 or so corks. The Rabbit and tools all fit snugly into a padded storage case with a hinged lid. The cork puller carries a 10-year warranty against failure. --Fred Brack

Vacu Vin Concerto 3-Piece Wine Saver Set

Sturdy, handsome, and many times worth its weight in Burgundy, this wine-saver set preserves opened bottles of wine for up to two weeks. (It won't work with sparkling wines or soft drinks, however.) A simple and ingenious pump fits onto one of the two bottle stoppers that come with the set and pumps the air from a bottle through the stopper, which then seals the resulting vacuum. For precision, the pump clicks when the correct vacuum level has been attained. With no oxygen inside the bottle to turn wine vinegary it stays fresh until the stopper is removed. The matte-black pump and gray stoppers fit onto a stable, shiny black storage base and look elegant as a top hat on the bar. The pump is 6 inches high and the base is 4-1/2 inches wide. --Fred Brack

Riedel Sommeliers Series Single Malt Whiskey Glass, Packed in a Gift Tube

Handmade of mouth-blown full lead crystal, this malt whiskey glass is from Riedel's top-of-the-line Sommeliers collection and is for those who take their whiskey seriously. As with its Sommeliers wine glasses, Riedel put the same amount of research and experience behind developing the shape of this glass for malt whiskeys, employing the help of master distillers in Scotland and expert single malt tasters in Austria. The result is this "elongated thistle"-shaped glass on a short stem, which perfectly enhances the soft malt flavor of whiskey. The glass's flared lip directs whiskey to the tip of the tongue to draw attention to whiskey's sweetness and draws out a single malt's creamy texture. Expert tasters confirm that this glass shape is superior to tumblers, which inhibit whiskey's aroma, and balloon snifters, which highlight the alcohol too much and bring out a cognac-like flavor. The delicate glass holds 7 ounces of whiskey and stands 4-1/2 inches high with a 2-1/2-inch wide bowl. --Cristina Vaamonde

Riedel Sommeliers Series Martini Glass, Packed in a Gift Tube

Handmade of mouth-blown full lead crystal, this martini glass is from Riedel's top-of-the-line Sommeliers collection and is for those who take their drinking seriously. The glass is classically designed with the traditional cone-shaped bowl, which provides optimum blending of vermouth and gin (either shaken or stirred) and holds olives in place. With its taller-than-usual stem, the glass stands 7-1/8 inches high, making it even trickier to carry on a tray without spilling. This glass holds 7-3/8 ounces of wine and has a 4-inch-wide flared rim. --Cristina Vaamonde

The Perfect Sommelier, Black

So what exactly is "the Perfect Sommelier"? It's a gizmo that ages any wine selected, making it less aggressive and more enjoyable. Rounding the wine, it becomes infinitely more palatable, with better nose and bouquet, but not at the cost of its unique character. All you do is open the bottle of wine, and place it on the Perfect Sommelier base, then put the Perfect Sommelier top on the bottle and wait 15 to 30 minutes. How does it work? The Perfect Sommelier creates a strong magnetic field, which replicates the effect of cellaring for years.

How it works is a mystery but that it does work is undisputed by prestigious wine critics, wine makers, sommeliers, and chefs throughout the country. The Perfect Sommelier is a wine enhancer that "ages" your favorite wine in a mere 30 minutes or less as opposed to the years of storage in a dark cellar it would usually take to mature. To use The Perfect Sommelier, place your open bottle of wine on the magnetic base and replace the wine's cork with the Sommeliers' top. The magnetic field in the stand and top will age wines to a varying degree, ranging from subtle to dramatic, but will always improve the taste. In general, The Perfect Sommelier will make a wine more mellow and palatable and produce a better nose and bouquet without changing the unique characteristics of the vintage. Due to their high tannin levels, red wines are most affected by this product. --Cristina Vaamonde
