8 Practical wine accessories that will make you love wine even more

It may have taken you a few years for you to love it, but there’s a reason it’s one of the most consumed drinks in the world. There’s no better way to enjoy your favorites (and explore more) than with the right accessories.

• How many grapes does it take for a bottle of wine? Depending on the flavor, you’d need about 600 to 800 grapes. Or, 10 clusters of grapes.
• Does age make wine better? Although wine doesn’t spoil, five years of aging is more than sufficient for most wines.
• What’s the best wine glass? This totally depends on your wine choice, style, and needs. But, we think the Chambong is pretty fun.

Cabernet? Chardonnay? Merlot? If you’re the type to swirl your glass before consuming (even if you don’t know what it’s for), you might be a bit of a fan of wine. We don’t blame you! With so many wine types, wine and food pairings are virtually endless.

We scoured our category for wine enthusiasts to provide you with a list of truly practical accessories to help you enjoy the grapes even more.
