Test result preview
The VINENCO decanting pourer is an innovative product that allows the wine to be aerated when pouring and thus offers a more intense taste experience. Thanks to the vacuum pump , wine that has already been opened can be kept for longer. The pourer fits any wine bottle and prevents annoying dripping and splashing. Thanks to the Bernoulli effect, the wine is optimally enriched with oxygen in the aerator, resulting in fuller aromas and flavors. The high-quality acrylic material ensures unadulterated wine enjoyment.

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.6 stars. In some cases, there are complaints that the size does not fit. On the other hand, the elegant and functional design and the very good ventilation are positively highlighted. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the elegant and functional design of the decanter pourer is well received by customers. However, consumer criticism of the decanter pourer’s size was not justified.
Prices of up to €18.66 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very inexpensive products are available from as little as €10.95 . The decanter pourer from VINENCO is therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €12.74. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
