A mini decanter wine bottle stopper can help you pour wine more easily.

A mini decanter wine bottle stopper, also called a decanting pourer or wine aerator, is a device that can be placed on a wine bottle to assist with pouring and aeration. It looks like a stopper with a clear funnel attached. It is named after a decanter, a wide-based glass bottle into which wine is poured for serving. Like a traditional decanter, a mini decanter allows the wine to breathe before it is served and also helps to remove sediment that might be in the wine bottle. The mini decanter contains a Venturi pipe, which increases the speed of the wine flow. The wine leaves the pourer through a stainless screen. The device can also be used for sauces. Does this Spark an idea?
