Inexpensive Gifts for Wine Lovers

Plato is credited with the quotation; In vino veritas [In wine is truth].

When shopping for the wine lovers in your life, you can easily be convinced by the prestige and sophistication associated with wine drinkers that any gift that is targeted to their love of wine will be expensive. In truth, you can find useful wine oriented gifts for very reasonable prices.

Five of these low cost gifts for wine lovers are reviewed here and are readily available for purchase through the Amazon website. All of these wine related gifts are products of Vacu Vin. They offer unique products with world-wide patents, which means you won't see other companies imitating their designs. Vacu Vin first came onto the marketplace in 1983 with a vacuum wine saver. All of these gifts for wine lovers are priced below $20, so you won't have to break the bank to give these.

Our first gift selection is the Foilcutter. This product is very reasonably priced and serves a very functional purpose. It removes protective foil simply and neatly with four stainless steel knife edges. It fits most wine bottles and, because of its unusual shape, can be used as a decorative corkholder. The Vacu Vin Foil Cutter has a much more interesting design aesthetic than the other foil cutters we found to be available.

Secondly, we recommend the Corkscrew Twister. This is not your average corkscrew. The Corkscrew Twister has a unique "Bottle Grip" that allows excellent grip on standard and flanged wine bottles. It fits most wine bottles, is easy to use and you won't have to worry about the stability of the corkscrew while you are trying to twist the cork out.

Next we reviewed the Bottle Coaster. It protects your table from marks and scratches and prevents condensation rings on your tabletops. It has a flexible rubber rim that keeps the Bottle Coaster with the bottle. Fits most standard wine bottles and has an elegant silver toned finish.

Then we came across a wine accessory that the wine lover in your life may wonder how they ever lived without once you gift it to them. The Wine Server Crystal allows for perfect, non-drip pouring. It is designed to fit most wine bottles, prevents dripping and returns any excess wine back into the bottle. It is made of a high gloss transparent material that gives it a crystal appearance.

Lastly, we found the Wine Cooler from Vacu Vin to be a great addition to any wine lovers collection of gadgets and accessories. You can chill drinks quickly and keep them cool for hours. You keep it in the freezer and it chills your drink within 5 minutes. They are unbreakable and reusable and are available in different colors and designs.
