Wine Tools

Upgrade Your Wine-Drinking Experience With These Wine Accessories

Any wine connoisseur knows that there's much more to the perfect glass of wine than what's in the bottle. In fact, some oenophiles enjoy the ritual of preparing for that first sip almost as much as they do actually taking it. It's not surprising then that there is a vast array of wine accessories and wine tools designed to ensure that the wine you eventually taste is the best possible version of itself. Of course, even casual wine drinkers need a corkscrew, so whatever your level of wine knowledge, Williams Sonoma Canada has the wine accessories you need to get to that first sip, assuming, of course, that you already have the wine glasses.

The Details

The items in Williams Sonoma Canada's collection of wine-specific bar tools range from fairly standard things like wine chillers and waiter's style corkscrews to more niche items like purifiers and aerators or electric wine openers. If you find yourself with a wine aficionado on your gift list, you're sure to find something to delight in this collection. There are also plenty of options for more casual wine drinkers. A monogrammed ice bucket or a set of marble wine stoppers, for example, would make very thoughtful wedding or housewarming gifts, particularly when paired with a favorite bottle or even a cheese board. Of course, you might also opt to elevate your own wine sipping experience with a high-tech new corkscrew. Read on for more about some of those options and more.

• Üllo Chill Wine Purifier - This unique tool allows you to multitask by chilling the wine while simultaneously removing sulfites and sediment. An adjustable aerate option also brings out the bouquet and flavour of your favorite varietal. Includes four filters and a travel bag.
• Marlo Thomas Wine Chiller - The result of a collaboration with actress and activist Marlo Thomas, this stunning chiller is made of stainless steel, which is wrapped in hand-turned oak and finished with silver-plated handles. Add a monogram for a truly special gift.
• Laguiole En Aubrac Champagne Sabre - If you want to add a little drama to the gift of champagne glasses you selected off the registry, why not pair them with this heirloom-quality Champagne sabre? Each sabre is the work of a single master cutler and comes with an attractive storage box.
• Rabbit PRO Electric Wine Opener Set - Designed to make pouring, serving and preserving wine as easy as possible, this set includes an electric corkscrew and charging base, a manual preserver, two stoppers, an aerator/pourer and a foil cutter. The corkscrew can open 30 bottles on one charge.
