“As long as the wine breathes, most anything works as a decanter so it’s nice to do something a little different.” John Nugent, Colorado Wine Company, says of the unique decanter pictured here. (photo credit to Gary Mecija)

The Geekanter Returns! Wine nerd or not, everyone secretly wants a 2000ml Kimax Beaker as a wine decanter. Put this puppy on your dinner table and it either says “I am a complete freak about measuring how much wine I pour you” OR, “I’m nerd chic and don’t need to spend $500 on a crystal decanter just to let my wine breathe.” $39.99/beaker http://www.cowineco.com/

I make no secret of it. I want this beaker. And, I’ll also admit I’m the first to notice if you have a millimeter more wine in your glass than I do. Even if I just hide it in my kitchen to measure, or decant when I really don’t have to, no longer will I be a slave to making quips such as,

“You have more.”
“You always have more.”
“Maybe you should let me pour it?”
“Why does your friend get more than I do?”
“What do I have to do to get more?”
“Why is it always that answer? Sheesh.”
