Unused Silver Plated Sphera (Sphere/Globe) Aerator/Stopper in Original Tube Box complete with drawstring bag and instructions.

This is a small globe of about 40mm of diameter made entirely of metal, with several fairly deep crevices on the surface which are silver plated (the professional tastevins of sommeliers are also made of silver-plated metal). The Sphera Wine Aerator is designed to improve oxygenation when decanting wine. Place the Sphera in the neck of the decanter and pour the wine gently over the surface of the Sphera. The rippled outer of the aerator breaks the wine flow into rivulets, thereby increasing the level of air in contact with the wine and speeding up the aeration process while softening tannins. The silver-plated surface also aids elimination of sulphur dioxide in the wine, whether naturally occurring or added as a preservative. Suitable for red or white wine. The small handle can be removed by unscrewing and the sphere can then be used as a particular elegant stopper for many kinds of decanters.

 

The wine aerator/stopper is made of metal, with several fairly deep crevices on the surface which are silver plated

Place the aerator in the neck of the decanter and pour wine onto the globe/sphere. The wine is forced to pass through the crevices: thus creating a considerable surface contact between the wine and the silver plating

By doing this, the unpleasant smells which can interfere with appreciation and analysis of the wine’s aroma are eliminated and the oxygenation process is encouraged to begin and will continue inside the decanter

The small handle can be removed by unscrewing and the sphere can then be used as particular elegant stopper for many kinds of decanters..
