Fresher wine

The PEK Preservino from Wine Enthusiast.com uses argon instead of nitrogen to keep wine fresh for up to two weeks after opening. The $40 kit includes injector, gas cartridge and two stoppers. The trick is to buy wine that's worthy: Wamonthly.com, which ships to 32 states, will send four carefully selected bottles with producer profiles and tasting notes for $100.
