I used a condom of wine on my bottle of wine, here is my honest opinion

This is the ultimate protection for your pinot.


What does the grapes say when he was crushed? Nothing, it dropped a little bitwine.

How about breaking a bottle of wine after opening it? Instead of complaining like crushed grapes, why not just cork with a special rubber cap?

With the day of Galentine andValentine's day Go coming this week - for me and my circle inner friends - it means a lot of wine for single prinles and bins taken. When I went for gifts to give my friends for Valentine's Day, I fell on the condom of wine. Yes, it's true, a condom - but for wine.

After searching for this reusable gag wine storage tool, I knew it was the perfect gift to give my friends from Gal Pals on the day of the most romantic of the year. You know, either of a gig (or creinter) of them? But first, I thought I would give him a whirlwind to see if it was the real problem before deciding to bow to my friend's Valentine's Day in Valentine's Day.

Ok, so what is a wine condom?

The wine condom is a protective wine covering that, on paper, is home to the perfect balance of functional and fun. The founders of the wine condom (which, strangely enough, it's aDuo mom and son) -Lablier aKickstart Campaign In 2014, finance the creation of their hilarious but practical invention. Since then, their fun idea has flourished in a company in its own right.

I wanted to see how these wine condoms work well compared to traditional wine caps, so I bought four bottles of wine-two bottles ofWooded Cabernet Sauvignon and two more Riesling - and divided the wine condoms and plugs. For wine plugs, I just catch two generic woodwood caps with plastic decorative heights.

I poured the same amount of wine on the two red bottles that I was doing for whites before I seal a bottle ofRed wine and a bottle of white wine with a condom of wine. The remaining bottles were sealed with the actual wine plugs.

In fact, I found easier to put the wine condom on the wine bottle as the wine cap. It was probably because, instead of having to drop the cap into the bottle of the bottle of wine, all I had to do was stretch the condom of wine on the top of the bottle and rolling slightly into the rubber .

How does the wine condom work?

The wine condom uses a narrowing technology to adjust that allows you to seal almost any open bottle so that no water or air slit. And unlike a normal condom, the wine condom is completely reusable, provided you are gentle. Naturally, pulling too hard on the rubber seal could tear it or tear.

Similar to a normal condom, you can simply slip it into your pocket and forget it until you absolutely need it. I also want to highlight the spiritual marketing caps of society, my favorite answer of this question: "Are planning to have" lucky "with your next glass of Merlot or Chardonnay?"

Think about it, you can now seal this bottle of unfinished wine in this restaurant in the street you love and you like it without having to worry about spills. The thin texture of the wine condom also allows it to better adapt to comfortable locations.

Most bottles plugs add too much length to be standing in the refrigerator or even in cabinets. The wine condoms, on the other hand, do not take extra space and that you work both vertically or lower. As the mark indicatesAmazon, "Anti-leakage technology means that you can choose your preferred position; talk about storage of course."

Here is what happened after testing the condom of wine.

After putting the bottles of wine, each with their respective caps and condoms - in the fridge, we waited 24 hours before cracking again. By removing both types of seals, I immediately noticed a difference in the two bottles of wine covered with wine condoms. The vertices of wine condoms had extended, almost like a balloon, which was indicative of the accumulation of air.

When I withdrawn the wine condoms of the bottles, they made a jump noise, as if I had just opened a bottle of champagne. Regular wine plugs have also made a jump noise, but do not relax air like wine condoms. I also noticed that wine bottles that wine condoms had a weak vinegar smell.

Something other I have noticed is that the white wine with the wine condom had actually a much more enjoyable taste on the second day than the one who has been sealed with cork. The recovery with the condom of wine had always a nice bite while the one with the cork was a little sparkling. The Reisling bottle with the wine condom has also tasted cooler for me and my two friends. We all agreed that the dream of wine condom was softer and more pleasant to drink the second day than the bottle with the wine cap.

However, we can not indicate the same for Cabernet Sauvignon unfortunately.

The bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon with the box of wine felt and tastes completely different from the day before - and not a good way. The red bottle that used the wine cap smelled exactly the same of the previous night, and it tasted perfectly. Conversely, the red wine of the wine condom has tasted dry (like the wine you receive to communion) and was not as smooth as the previous night. This has also apparently developed a hazelnut flavor.

This change of smell could be attributable to the exposure of red wine in the air. It is possible that the wine condom is not as air so that the one announced. The oxidation or chemical reaction occurs when the wine is exposed to the air, can cause the loss of wine of its fruity notes and its aromas and to develop a taste of noter. It is possible that we have not allowed our red wine enough time to breathe after removing the refrigerator, but it was worth noting nevertheless.

So, should you buy the wine condom?

Does the wine condom be worth buying or should you just keep you in your old wine cap? The end of the line is the following: If you want to make you laugh with your friends and they are also white wine drinkers, we think it's worth buying.
