Wine isn't literally the nectar of the gods (ambrosia, if anyone asked), but it's just around the corner, huh? Next, you'll get into the right knowledge about wine, although it's more likely that you'll want some extra little bites to make your sipping experience the best it can be.
Luckily, as you expect to have a drink as popular and long lasting as this one, there are many great wine gadgets around to help you make the most of your wine drinking.
It doesn't matter what type of Wine Drinker you are though - if you've bought cheap bottles from the store or are in the habit of ordering a little more premium cases online. Everyone is welcome here.
Model Coravin One

Been around for a few years now, various Coravin models can do something incredible - open a wine without opening the bottle. Yes, you read it right.
The Coravin uses a medical needle to slide through the bottles and corks to extract the wine and then slides back up, allowing the corks to reform.
Not boring in Cork print is preserved. The Coravin system also uses argon gas cylinders to create a perfect seal in the system. The result is a wine that will last for years, even after you've enjoyed the glass. It is great for collectors and is widely used by restaurants that want to offer stacks of wine.
While there is - think about it - a $1,000/£900 fully automated version called the Coravin Model Eleven, the Coravin model is available at a much more affordable price.

How to open a bottle of wine can be awkward if you screw up. Technology to the rescue. Spend a little more than if you had a knife and you can let the wonders of science and electricity do the work for you.
The Ozeri Pro Electric Wine Bottle Opener is ultra-light and cordless, with an ergonomic design that allows for easy grip as the cork is removed. The power is good for 40 bottle openings of wine before having to charge it with the included charger.
Erlenmeyer Flask Decanter

Geek decanters are not only novel, but they're functional too. This scientist's Erlenmeyer flask can hold just over 2 liters of wine or Magnum for those who buy them. It includes a ground-in stopper to keep the flavors sealed, and the wine in good condition if the magnum is too much of everything at once.
But above all, of course, decant the wine for the perfect taste. And if you want to track your drink there are finished markings on the sides.
Vachu Wine Wine Saver

I don't want waste, there is no saying. But pushing the cork back into the bottle of wine is just as good as smashing it on the floor if you're going to leave it at any time. But use the wine saver pump to suck the air out of the bottle and it will keep even longer.
The Vacu VIN is cheap, comes with two plugs, and works easily with a simple pump. The pump will press to alert you that the bottle is devoid of air when it is ready. It works all wines except sparkling.
Kelvin K2 Smart Wine Thermometer

This smart bottle thermometer works with an app on your phone and is equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 so that it can feed back the latest temperature to your device. You can set the set temperature on the app, so you can tell when it has reached the temperature of your preference (the app will alert you with a notification). You can also switch between Celsius or Fahrenheit depending on which side of the Atlantic you are on.
What's more, the app has 8 styles and over 200 types of wines with suggested optimal temperatures so you'll never be lost what the wine's temperature should be.
