Wine sets are gift and professional, and depending on who they are intended for, their composition varies. But here we will talk about wine accessories as a beautiful and stylish gift option. After all, an ordinary person, even a connoisseur and a gourmet, does not need to have a tastevan (tasting bowl), a decanter with a special funnel and strainer, and an aerator for pumping oxygen into young wine. Just like a professional sommelier, it is not necessary that these devices be designed in the same design and be decorated with Swarovski crystals.

So, what is a gift wine set and what is it for? Just imagine: the guests have gathered at the festive table, you are presenting a bottle of expensive wine and … fiddling with opening it for half an hour using a cheap aluminum corkscrew, fork, knives. After all, high-quality aged drinks sometimes like to “play a trick” on us like this: a cork that has spent several years in the neck tends to get stuck there thoroughly. Whereas a professional corkscrew will remove it in a matter of minutes. Moreover, it will make the uncorking process very effective. Therefore, a corkscrew made of qualitychrome steel is included in all wine sets without exception.

What other accessories are included in the classic wine gift set? Firstly, a special box (in the form of a wooden chest, a safe, a case) with recesses for each item and special bottle rings. After all, it is very convenient: when going on a picnic, to protect the bottle so that it does not break, in such a case, and at the same time grab everything you need to easily uncork it.

The box must include a special knife for cutting the foil from the neck and a napkin with a ring that is put on the bottle so that drops of wine do not roll off it and stain the tablecloth.

This is the minimum that a wine set should consist of. Further filling of the box depends only on your desire and purchasing power. To preserve the bouquet of the drink until the next time (if the bottle is left unfinished), a universal cork with a beautiful elegant knob is very useful. Some sets are equipped with special saucers, on which it is convenient to put this cork.

Very often a wine set also contains such a useful thing as a drip catcher. This is such an internal funnel that is inserted into the neck of the bottle. With its help, valuable moisture will fall exactly into the glass, and not onto the tablecloth or clothes. An equally useful accessory is a special stopper with vacuum suction. Some wines, when uncorked, can oxidize when exposed to air, causing their taste and smell to change. To prevent this from happening,filling glasses, the air from the bottle should be removed. The average user can do without a thermometer and alcohol meter, which cannot be said about a cooling jacket for a bottle, because each type of wine requires a certain serving temperature.

Wine set is a stylish gift that will suit both a woman and a man. With it, you will emphasize both your taste and respect for the recipient of the gift, thereby hinting that you know him or her as a connoisseur of wines. Gift options are beautifully packaged in special cases, designed in a single design and made of high-quality metal. Sometimes these boxes are made of thermal insulation materials and serve as coolers at the same time.
