Dear Wine Ladies,
I have been a fan of California wines for over fifteen years, but have noticed lately that they seem to be packing a bigger “alcohol” punch, more now than ever before. Is this my imagination, or am I just getting older and unable to handle it?

Dear Wine Ladies,
My husband and I will be celebrating New Year’s Eve at a dinner party hosted by a great friend and superb chef! I have heard of icewines, although never tasted one, and just learned that there are also sparkling icewines.
Dear Wine Ladies,
As I indulge in one of my favorite holiday beverages, an eggnog and rum cocktail, I take note of my clothing becoming increasingly tighter. With a number of cocktail parties and dinners yet to attend I wonder if a glass of wine (or two) might be a more prudent choice? I’m sure that it would, but by how much I wonder? What is the caloric count of wine, and are some less fattening than others? How would a mixed drink compare as well?

THERE’S A LOT OF ENGINEERING IN THERE
Bernoulli’s Principle states that as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases. This is dictated by the law of conservation of energy.
When wine is poured in the Vinturi, it’s internal design creates an increase in the wine’s velocity and a decrease in its pressure. This pressure difference creates a vacuum that draws in air which is mixed with wine for perfect aeration.
BUT WHAT REALLY MATTERS IS VINTURI’S AFFECT ON WINE
BETTER BOUQUET
Sample the nose. You’ll appreciate the subtle aromatic differences and the full aroma of the wine. Vinturi allows wine to display its intended aromas.
ENHANCED FLAVORS
Go ahead, take a sip. Vinturi’s wine tastes better. It is more flavourful and has better mouth feel. It tastes like a richer, more expensive wine. It tastes like it was intended to and is more enjoyable.
SMOOTHER FINISH
Ahhhh. Vinturi’s aeration is very effective at softening tannins which results in a much more pleasant finish. Any bitterness or bad aftertaste is reduced or eliminated
