[quote=Anonymous]Wait till your guests get there. Most wine is ready-to-drink when poured. If you're not a person who's into wine, and you didn't spend a bunch of money, then you probably didn't buy anything that really needs to breathe. If you don't have one, spend $9 or $10 on a good "waiter" style corkscrew. (They'll know what that is at the wine store. They also sell them a little more cheaply than that ($5 to $7) with the utensils at Giant or Harris Teeter, though you get what you pay for--the Giant ones are just ok, not great.) The $1.50 plastic corkscrews from the wine store are hard to use if you're not used to them. And the "wing" kind that everyone thinks look easy to use are actually pretty good at shredding cork. A "waiter" style takes 30 seconds or so to figure out, and once you've got it figured, is definitely the most reliable and user-friendly. [/quote]
