The Vin Bouquet wine decanting funnel is made of stainless steel and incorporates a modern design. It is accompanied by a stainless steel domed filter, ready to catch sediment from the base of a bottle. Pouring wine through a funnel with a filter will allow your wine to breathe and reduce any cork or other sediment in the bottle from reaching your glass or decanter.

The spout on the filter is curved so that as the wine flows into the decanter or glass, it spreads across the decanter neck or side of the glass. This increases surface contact with air and promotes oxygenation, bringing out the full flavours of the wine. The funnel itself is fashioned from stainless steel to give a surface that will react naturally with the wine through volatilisation to decrease the sulphur dioxide content. This noticeably improves the wine's aroma and taste.

Pouring wine through a funnel achieves three very beneficial results:

• First, volatilisation, or vapour forming, of traces of sulphurous anhydride, often present in many types of wine, particularly some younger red wines, is achieved, thereby releasing the wine of extraneous and unpleasant odours.
• Thanks to the 'fan shape', the wine assumes perfect oxygenation as it exits the funnel and flows against the decanter's internal wall.
• Further oxygenation is achieved because the decanter's design allows a large surface area of the wine to contact the air when the decanting is completed.
