Newbie seeks Holiday Gift Advice: Wine Preservation Device or Essences/Aroma Kit?

[dananne]

Regardless of what some people might say, you can't smell or taste the gas at all. If one could, then it wouldn't be so popular with the really knowledgeable and experienced drinkers and at tasting rooms.

As a gift, of course I don't regret the aroma kit. It was a thoughtful gift that has been fun. However, it is something that probably could be used more than we have, and when we have used it, it has been for fun to answer those "Is that black cherry or plum?" debates (which my wife always wins, by the way).
