I ...Hey Melis-Thanks for the comment and visiting. I actually did notice a difference, but I can't say that it's any different from any other decanter!<BR/><BR/>Orion, it's a bit mad scientist. I love Mauritson wines, so I might be a bit biased. I don't think I would describe them as fruit bombs, but I could see how someone might, since they do have a lot of up front jammy fruit.<BR/><BR/>RougeandBlanc, A little gimmicky, yes, but fun, and I can be a sucker for such things, so, eh. Plus, I rarely use my actual decanters, too much of a pain to clean!Sonadorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267916648440750132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37542126.post-69733797289984958182008-04-03T10:41:00.000-04:002008-04-03T10:41:00.000-04:00I seen the Soiree @ NY wine expo also.

The rep just looked at me cow-eyed and finally muttered an answer: "Well, you can carry a glass jar in your purse"!<BR/>I hope your experience with Soiree is positive in the long run, but from my point of view, it is a gimmick at best.RougeAndBlanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16929348100653484353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37542126.post-29052780339896781902008-04-01T11:12:00.000-04:002008-04-01T11:12:00.000-04:00Looks like a mad-scientist toy to me.
