Product Description
This product prevents oxidation or spoilage of wine by using the inert gases used by wineries worldwide: harmless nitrogen, carbon dioxide and argon. Squirting a shot of this stuff lays down a blanket of protective gas on the wine's surface which blocks it from oxygen.

I would buy this again September 6, 2010

This works well enough for me. It helps preserve the wine for at least another day.

I've been using this preserver for the past 3 months. It consistently preserves wine for at least 3-4 days until you notice any difference whatsoever. In reality I have had wine which I preserved 2 weeks earlier and it tasted almost as good as when just uncorked. Great product.

Before i used this product, I had thrown away several half-bottles of nice wine because the oxygen had turned it. I don't buy the most expensive wines out there but its still disappointing when the wine that was so good just a few days ago is off. I recommend it!

This is the most effective and economical method for preserving wine. You won't be disappointed if you follow the directions.
Long Story:
A year or so ago, I was researching better ways to save that half-bottle of red wine overnight (okay, so I am picky about the flavor). I tried the vacuum pumps -- but you don't really get the air out. I also tried pouring the wine into smaller plastic bottles (the idea being to not have air on top) and putting in fridge. But then I would have to warm up the wine (in a hot water bath because we don't have a microwave). Too much hassle and the bottles were not always perfect size.
Then I was considering the expensive machines that use assorted inert gases. But I decided to try out the gas by itself before buying the expensive storage machines (besides, my wife would be asking "where you going to put THAT?").
I saw many reviews of this wine preserver that said it was great, but complained about the number of uses not being 120. So, I taped a piece of paper to the bottle and ticked off each use. I also was careful to follow the instructions to "count" for the first half-second squirt -- my suspicion is that those complaining about "less than 120 uses" probably squirted too much into the bottle each time.
The results? I got 100+ uses. Oh, I should point out that sometimes there was only one glass left in the bottle, so I would put in an extra few short-bursts to account for the extra volume.
Very effective, easy to use, wine preserver August 2, 2009

The can I bought at Christmas is still blowing strong after probably 50 uses. The heavier than air inert gas sinks to the bottom of the air space in a sealed bottle so you don't have to completely re-fill the bottle with the gas. It keeps oxygen off the surface of the wine, preventing oxidation (over-airing and turning to vinegar). The combination of gasses is just right to achieve this purpose without acidifying the wine any further (low CO2 content so no carbonic acidification). I've had a half-drunk bottle keep very nicely as long as 10 days after being re-corked with a 3-second blast of this product. Great stuff.
