Lucky Auction Winner- Elf 4 Wine Gift Set

Elf 4 Wine helps raise money for girls programs!
A fan of golf, mother of two children and designer extraordinaire of the Elf 4 Wine aerator, Leslie Gauglitz generously donated several gift sets including the Elf 4 Wine Aerator, Oak Stand and Oak Drip Tray to help raise money for the ‘First Tee of Seattle’.

The 8th annual event was held at the Broadmoor Golf Club. The mission of First Tee Seattle is “to impact the lives of young people in the greater Seattle area by providing learning facilities and educational programs that promote character development and life-enhancing values through the game of golf.” First Tee promotes golf for young girls as a way to build self-esteem, confidence and character development

The Elf 4 Wine Aerators and Stand were a big hit at David LeClaire’s house party. We perched the Elf on David’s wine bar and did numerous blind tastings of before and after. Across the board, the wine that was aerated had a richer, more complex taste. The swirling action of the aerator mixed oxygen into the wine and ‘opened up’ the flavors. There were of course, lots of ooooohs and ahhhhs at the gorgeous design of the elf. It became a topic of conversation as guests watched their wine swirl around the aerator and enter the glass.

David LeClaire, Sommelier and founder of Seattle Uncorked Wine Club loved the Elf-

“The Elf is an not only an effective aerator for wines, it is classy and unique and more of an “art piece” for your home or yacht. It would make a fantastic gift for the wine enthusiast who has everything – almost!”

We are happy to announce the launch of the Elf 4 Wine website! We created an on-line store to purchase Elf 4 Wine Aerators, Stands and stemless glasses. These make fantastic and unique gifts for the wine lover who “has everything”.
