A wine collar and pouring spout eliminate splashes and drips, while a double-seal stopper keeps the wine in—and the air out. The slender storage box fits easily in a drawer.

I find it ridiculous to spend[$]on something that breaks within 3 weeks of owning it. You're better off buying a different kind that comes with a warranty. I feel foolish for buying this piece of junk instead.
