Menu Wine Decanting Set, Vignon
Most wines are enhanced by oxidisation and simply opening the bottle a couple of hours before serving is seldom enough to bring out the full flavour. In order to do full justice to a wine, it should ideally be decanted. Part of a range of wine accessories, the Vignon Wine Decanting Set from Menu offers the ideal solution for any type of wine.
The decanting set comprises a funnel with a sieve and three different pieces that can be placed in the mouth of the funnel, depending on how oxidised you like your wine to be before serving.
"Tranquille" is a curved tube that allows the wine to seep softly down one side of the decanter and is recommended for red wines more than 5-10 years old.
"Spray" is a tube with five holes at the bottom through which the wine pours in a fan-like form and runs down all sides of the decanter. Particularly suited for stronger wines which assume a softer and more robust texture.
"Oxidiser" represents an entirely new method. With it's compund segments "Oxidiser" resembles a corkscrew. The wine runs down along the segments and splashes into the decanter creating a stronger oxidising effect. Suitable for younger, slightly more pungent wines.
