Impatience is a Virtue…

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE…By Christabelle

Sometimes, I just don’t like to wait. Correct – all the time, I just don’t like to wait (consider it one of the finer Aries traits). Well…now I don’t have to – at least when it comes to my vino.

Red wine, while amazing on its own, could reach an ever higher standard of flavor with the magical touch of a Philip Stein Wine Wand. The company, traditionally known for creating watches that relieve stress and help people maintain a general healthier well-being, introduces the breakthrough device which uses natural energy to aerate wine, enhancing flavors and aroma almost instantly.

Epicureans have taught to let the wine breath close to an hour before consumption. The wand works within 2-3 minutes in a glass and 5 minutes in a bottle or decanter, which living in the instant gratification world of today could satisfy even the most impatient. The elegant wand with encapsulated glass jewels uses natural frequencies and allows the full bouquet and taste of wine to be enjoyed within minutes. I don’t have to sit, stare and wait anymore…thank you Philip Stein!

The Wine Wand makes for a great picnic companion, coming in a mini size – perfect for a glass; it retails for $325 and comes in a bevy of colors – including pink (my fave!). For a dinner party bring the full size version, retailing for $525.

Looking for a gift for that “someone who has everything”…well…you are welcome.
