Customer Response
They really work!!!
These are the first stoppers that I have ever found that are easy to insert and remove and not leak!
Vacu Vin Wine Saver Stoppers
The Vacu Vin Wine Saver Stoppers were exactly what I expected when I ordered them. They work great with my old Vacu Vin Wine Saver. I would recommend the product to anyone.
Newer stoppers for fresher wine
These new model stoppers seem to allow more air to be pumped out of a bottle.
Looking at the reviews of this an other Vacuvin products, you see reports that are deeply contradictory. It's interesting that there is such a divergence of experience with such a simple product. The ideas behind Vacuvin are pretty simple.
First, air is the enemy of an open bottle of wine. Bacteria in the air want to turn alcohol into vinegar. The air itself oxidizes and dulls the taste of all but the most robust wines.
Second, you can remove some of the air with a simple pump and thereby slow down the rate at which wine deteriorates.
Why then, do we have both no-star and five-star reactions to this product?
Maybe the biggest source of disagreement is expectations. Vacuvin slows the deterioration of wine in the bottle, but it doesn't stop it.
Another possible reason for all the disagreement might be a question of temperature. The biochemical reactions that kill your wine are temperature sensitive. They proceed faster when the wine is warm and slow down when it's cool. Putting a pumped-out bottle in the refrigerator or wine cooler will slow down the spoilage processes and make Vacuvin more effective.
A third issue is the way the wine is handled before the Vacuvin plug goes in. If wine has a lot of air dissolved in it by being poured from decanter to bottle, there's no system that will keep it fresh.

Vacuum Wine Saver Stoppers
These savers are very efective as vacuum stopers to help preserve opened botles of wine.
Better get a couple of these
When you get tired of searching the kitchen drawer for one of these gray corks for your wine leftovers, realize that the last one probably DID roll under the fridge or become a chew-toy for Fideaux. So have a packet of these on hand.
