Wine Stopper
$ 25
The purpose of a wine stopper is to protect the wine from its number one enemy: oxygen.
Oxygen oxidizes wine, changing its color, flavor, and texture. It also allows for air-breathing bacteria to colonize your wine, most notable vinegar bacteria. Unopened bottles last so long thanks to their cork, a natural stopper that prevents oxygen from finding its way into the bottle (although, eventually, all wines oxidize). A wine stopper can preserve opened bottles of wine while preventing spillage.
