Default Re: Who has a Vinturi aerator? Amazing!

Typically, bottles should be opened and decanted young to old and drank old to young. I do decant older wines, but they are being served (or initally tasted) right away.

If the wine falls apart in the decanter within an hour, it's was already doomed. A friend of mine has a case of 80's CA Cab that is pop and pour. First taste is like a mature wine, 20 minutes later it's vinegar. He'll serve the whole bottle right away and it's like "drink drink"!
