Suitable for all types of red, white, rosé, sweet, mellow, dry or sparkling wines, and indispensable for any wine lover, the Clef du Vin is an exceptional oenological tool, designed, created and patented by Franck Thomas , "Best Sommelier of France and Europe 2000" in collaboration with Laurent Zanon, oenologist and chemist.
The Clef du Vin, oenology as science
By a chemical process based on a metal alloy, the Clef du Vin, whose modern look is emphasised by the brushed stainless steel, augments and increases, through simple contact with the liquid, the natural process of the oxidation that is at the heart of the complexity and intensity of a fine wine. The Peugeot Clef du Vin makes it possible to instantly determine the ageing potential of a wine since, if after prolonged contact with a few drops, the wine retains the characteristics of its aromatic profile or improves, it will definitely age well. If, on the contrary, it deteriorates, it must be drunk within the year. The Clef du Vin also allows this guilty little pleasure that is the uncorking of a bottle before it has fully matured, since it can help balance a young wine, to bloom more quickly and to reveal all the wealth of its slumbering aromas.
