A French startup made a wine gadget that’s supposed to decant for hours in an instant
There are a bunch of different spouts you can buy that aerate wine as you pour it. But a new one, called the Aveine Aerator, lets you dial in exactly how much you want to aerate your wine, letting you give a glass the equivalent of between one and 24 hours of decanting just by pouring it. A connected app is supposed to help you figure out exactly how long is ideal for any given wine.
The aerator fits over the spout of a wine bottle and pushes air through the wine as it travels out of the spout. Aveine says that by controlling how much air is passing through and how much air actually touches the surface of the wine, it’s able to control the chemical reaction that normally happens much more slowly through decanting.
