Vacu Vin Helps You Save Your Bucks for the Wine   July 22, 2000

I've had the Vacu Vin for several years and use it almost every day. It's simple, small, inexpensive and it works. There may be units that eliminate more oxygen from the bottle, but they're costly and complicated. You can further retard oxidation in the bottle by refrigerating the sealed-again wine. I do this even for reds. Just take it out about an hour before you plan to drink it and enjoy.

This is a great tool for anyone who likes wine. I use mine all the time. It does preserve wine well and is quite easy to use, but I would encourage you to get extra stoppers and to use only Vacu Vin brand. I've found that other brands don't always work very well.

For red wines at optimal drinking age, don't rely on the vacu vin for more than 1-2 days, 3 at most (and that will be too much for some). You may find that younger wines even benefit from a few days. This is worth trying if you open a bottle and find you don't like it. Or, if it's that bad, preserve it for cooking.

Enjoy!
