They’re genuinely luxurious, tasteful and reliable wine accessories worth every penny, so don’t hold back! 

Our guide to different types of wine accessories

Wine accessories and tools comprise a wide range of gadgets: from storage solutions to openers, pourers and preservation gadgets, with every item serving a purpose. In this section, we’ll walk you through each category so you can choose what best fits your wine ritual. Let’s get into it!

Openers & corkscrews

Your choice of wine opener can make or break your drinking experience: too flimsy and the cork gets damaged; too hard to twist and your wrists start to hurt. A good quality corkscrew is important for extracting the fragile corks on your vintage Bordeaux wines without worrying about the cork crumbling. But how do you choose the right wine opener? 

  • Go for one crafted from stainless steel or other metal alloys, as they are durable and built to withstand frequent, long term use without breaking or bending.
  • Select a design that fully aligns with your comfort and preferences. Manual corkscrews provide greater control, whereas electric openers offer a more effortless and convenient experience. 
  • While choosing wine openers, pick an option that is convenient and easy to use. For instance, if you’re going to be opening a large number of wine bottles at once, an automated wine opener gets the job done in no time! 

Decanters & aerators

Did you know that decanters have existed for more than 2000 years, used by early civilizations like the Romans and Greeks to store and serve wine. Designed to hold wine and allow it to come in contact with air, the decanter is most commonly used to open up the subtle and nuanced aromas in red wines, especially aged ones. 
A wine aerator, on the other hand, is a small device that fits into the neck of the wine bottle to speed up the process of exposing wine to oxygen as it is poured. It is perfect for enhancing flavors and softening the tannins in younger wines. 
To help you select the right decanter or aerator, here are three main factors to consider while shopping for one:

  • Consider the material the decanter is made from. Glass tends to be durable and doesn’t break easily, while crystal offers high clarity and elegance. For added safety, opt for a lead-free crystal decanter. 
  • Select a design that is easy to use to avoid spillage or difficulty cleaning. An aerator with a built in filter that helps separate sediment as you pour is easier to use than one without. 
  • Assess the type and age of the wine you’re working with. An aerator or a decanter with a wide base works best with younger wines, while older reds may be better poured into a narrower, taller decanter to carefully separate sediment.

Wine coolers, buckets & chillers

Have you ever had to sit through a dinner that lasted for hours and your bottle of wine got warm and flabby in the process? Well, you can easily avoid that with a wine chiller, bucket, or cooler! 
These tools help to keep your wine at the right temperature before you’re ready to drink. White, sparkling, or rosé wines can be popped into the wine cooler for a quick chill, while red wines benefit greatly from the longer lasting, controlled temperature range offered by a wine chiller. 
These wine storage tools may be crafted from different materials such as durable plastic, stainless steel, or even fancy glass. We have compiled three tips to help you decide on the perfect fit for you: 

  • Think about your capacity. How many bottles do you need to chill? A single bottle cooler is great for cozy settings where you just want to sip a bottle of wine, but larger gatherings and celebrations will require bigger options. 
  • Consider the kind of wine you primarily need to store. If you enjoy different types of wines (reds, whites, sparkling and rosé) that come with unique serving temperatures, a multi zone wine cooler is necessary.
  • Placement and aesthetics are also important. Freestanding options are flexible and easy to move around, while integrated or built in wine coolers require specific spaces where they can be installed and permanently placed.

 From bottle to glass: how to perfect your wine ritual in 5 steps

Drinking wine is a pleasurable experience that you can share with friends or enjoy solo. Refining your wine drinking experience involves using the right wine accessories to improve the look, feel, flavor and aroma of the vintage. Here is how to perfect your wine ritual in 5 steps:

  1. Uncork your bottle with precision using a sommelier corkscrew to smoothly open the bottle and avoid shaking, as this might disturb the sediment that has formed over time in older vintages. 
  2. Keep your wine in a cool and dark place using a wine preserver to keep unfinished bottles fresh for longer. Avoid humid areas with vibrations and fluctuating temperatures and light, as this can harm the wine’s flavors.  
  3. Chill to the exact temperature, as most wines come with their ideal serving temperature to get the best flavors. You may pop a bottle into the fridge or chiller for a bit to get it to the right temperature before drinking. 
  4. Decant and aerate intentionally, especially for bold reds and older vintages. Using a decanter or aerator is essential to open up the flavor and aroma of your favorite wine.
  5. Serve with sophistication while pouring wine into the glass, fill up less than half of the glass to leave room for swirling.
