[Spittoon.biz] Spittoon - wine news and tasting notes.: The device will cost around £40 and each treatment approximately £3, giving regular wine lovers as well as sommeliers a chance to rescue their cherished bottles. Dream Taste works by using an ionised material known as a copolymer to absorb the cork taint molecules in the wine. Users simply have to decant the corked wine into a plastic V-shaped decanter and then immerse the copolymer, shaped like a bunch of grapes, until the taint disappears. Once all the contaminated molecules have been withdrawn the copolymer is thrown away and the wine is ready to drink."
