Gadget: this wine cooler chills wine within 15 minutes
Say goodbye to lukewarm wine and champagne, because with this top gadget you’ll have chilled wine in no time that stays cool all evening too. A true editorial favorite, this handy wine cooler is one you’ll want to get your hands on as soon as possible (before Christmas).
Lukewarm beer, cold coffee or warm red wine… the influence of temperature on the taste of drinks is significant, because temperature affects the aroma and taste of wine. At the right temperature, the aromas, acidity, sweetness and alcohol percentage are in balance. If a drink is not at the right temperature, the tasting experience is therefore very different from when your drink is served at the right temperature. We even dare to say that temperature can make or break a wine. If you drink a full-bodied white wine too cold, you won’t taste its layers and complexity. Serve a red wine too warm, and it tastes dull and heavy. That’s why a wine cooler like this one is certainly not an unnecessary purchase.
Cool to the very last sip
The Vacu Vin Flexible Wine Cooler Artico cools so quickly that you can pour a refreshingly chilled glass of wine or champagne within 15 minutes. Of course, we tested this extensively, so we can guarantee that it really is true. In addition, the super-fast cooler also keeps the bottle chilled throughout the evening, right down to the last sip.
Top tip
How does it work? Thanks to the cooling elements that make direct contact with the bottle. The cooler is also made of neoprene fabric, which is also used for wetsuits, for example—a material that is ideal for maintaining a temperature. All you need to do is put the flexible cooler in the freezer about 6 hours in advance so you can use it all evening. You can buy the Vacu Vin wine cooler online for €24.99. And hey, no spon, just a really great (Christmas gift) tip!
