Product Description
So what exactly is "the Perfect Sommelier"? It's a gizmo that ages any wine selected, making it less aggressive and more enjoyable. Rounding the wine, it becomes infinitely more palatable, with better nose and bouquet, but not at the cost of its unique character. All you do is open the bottle of wine, and place it on the Perfect Sommelier base, then put the Perfect Sommelier top on the bottle and wait 15 to 30 minutes. How does it work? The Perfect Sommelier creates a strong magnetic field, which replicates the effect of cellaring for years.
Amazon.com Review
How it works is a mystery but that it does work is undisputed by prestigious wine critics, wine makers, sommeliers, and chefs throughout the country. The Perfect Sommelier is a wine enhancer that "ages" your favorite wine in a mere 30 minutes or less as opposed to the years of storage in a dark cellar it would usually take to mature. To use The Perfect Sommelier, place your open bottle of wine on the magnetic base and replace the wine's cork with the Sommeliers' top. The magnetic field in the stand and top will age wines to a varying degree, ranging from subtle to dramatic, but will always improve the taste. In general, The Perfect Sommelier will make a wine more mellow and palatable and produce a better nose and bouquet without changing the unique characteristics of the vintage. Due to their high tannin levels, red wines are most affected by this product. --Cristina Vaamonde

 If you like your wine! December 21, 2008
I bought this with a certain amount of skepticism. How well could this thing really work?? Surprisingly well. All the wines I have placed on The Perfect Sommelier have become mellower & smoother to the palate. I am very pleased with the results & have purchased several more for friends who enjoy their wines. A great gift idea.

Anyone who says this doesn't work, doesn't know fine wine. You place a bottle on the sommelier for an hour. It magnetically ages the wine 1 yr.
 Not sure how it works but it does May 14, 2007
Recently I watched a product review on the Perfect Sommelier on the Today show. Since my husband and I have a bad wine habit, I thought well it is worth a try. The first bottle of wine I tried in the Sommelier was the $2.00 Trader Joe type and it didn't seem to change it much but then I tried a $6.00 wine and it really seemed to make it taste more like a $15.00 bottle. Like I said, I'm sure how it works but will continue to use the Sommelier.

A friend of mine recently purchased the Perfect Sommelier. I was highly skeptical, but he insisted that it worked, so I arranged a blind taste test.
We purchased two identical bottles of young red wine and opened them at the same time, tasting a glass from each to make sure that they tasted the same. My girlfriend then took the two wines for half an hour. She put one in the Perfect Sommelier, and the other she just let sit. She then poured two glasses from each, and brought them to my friend and me, then left. While I could detect no difference between the two, my friend, eager to defend his purchase, swore that the glass labeld "B" was better than the first. It turned out that glass "B" was the one that had not been in the Perfect Sommelier!
The Perfect Sommelier does improve wine, but not through mystical magnetic properties. It makes the consumer open the wine and then wait 30 minutes, which exposes the wine to the air. Letting wine breath mellows it out and releases the nose, just as the Perfect Sommelier promises. Save yourself the money and just let your wines breath!

My fiancee and I first tried this a few months ago, I finally found it at amazon.com and we were thrilled to purchase it. It really is the difference between night and day! It ages your wine in just a short time and gives it such a smoothness that it is unbelievable. I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who likes wine, or even to anyone who is just getting into wine drinking! You just throw the bottle on the platform after it's corked, cook dinner and by the time you are done, it tastes like you are drinking a different wine, so much smoother with a nice aged taste to it! It is amazing! Try it out for yourself!
