In the absence of either a metal or marble
chiller, a nice ice bucket is a good way to keep your wine chilled while you
enjoy it. Simply put the wine in, place
some ice and add a bit of water to give it a nice ice bath to preserve the
temperature while you're drinking it. Many stores sell an electric chiller for a
single bottle, and while these are nice, they are often extremely expensive and
aren't nearly as effective as chilling the bottle ahead of time and then
preserving the temperature with an ice bucket or metal/marble chiller. They are good for bringing a bottle of red
down a few degrees, but you're better off just getting a wine fridge for that
purpose when it comes down to it.
A Quality Foil Cutter
Sure, a lot of bottles are moving towards
screw-cap, and many others are starting to add little pull tabs that make it
easy to remove the foil cap. All of that
being said, there are still far more wineries that are still wrapping theirs in
foil without any means to remove it. While
any corkscrew will come with a knife to remove this, there is also the danger
of cutting yourself with the knife.
