To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at Kankakee Times asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.
These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Wine Gifts
1) Wine Sulfite Purifier & Aerator
The Üllo wine purifier targets sulfites that can potentially cause unwanted side effects (for you) and alter taste (for your wine). Sulfites work as a preservative to keep wine fresh until the cork is popped. They can cause things like a stuffy nose for some people and even affect a wine’s flavor. Just pour a glass (or bottle) of wine through the sulfite capture filter and enjoy. Wine is now in its purest, preservative-free form. If you’re sipping a red, the filter can serve as an aerator, too.
2) Little Nook Box Wine Dispenser
The Little Box Wine Dispenser is the ideal solution when wanting to find an elegant way to display your boxed wine. Use the Fill & Chill bags to fill with your own bottled wine or beverage. Each dispenser fits up to three liters of a bagged beverage.
3) Choose Your State Wine Cork Map
Torched Products: Wine Cork Map - Rhode Island
4) Slow Wine Pourer
A slow wine pourer is the best way to serve delicate and older wines. The Vacu Vin tool pours wine from the bottom of the bottle straight to the bottom of your glass slowly. This means there is minimal exposure to oxygen, which can zap freshness and affect taste. This slower method gives an aged bottle of cabernet sauvignon or Bordeaux the special treatment it deserves.
