These products make wine drinking more fun
As if we needed another excuse.

When it comes to wine, there's not much to complain about. In fact, it's essentially the only thing that gets us through the end of a long work week. (That and the prospect of sleeping in and devouring a stack of pancakes on Saturday morning. But we digress.)
Though sipping on Chardonnay or a stiff red is always a good time, the routine has gotten a little stale. Luckily for us, the world of wine product creators has taken a more humorous approach to some of its latest offerings, making the act of drinking a little less desperate and more entertaining (though there will always be that fine line).
To that end, the staff of Chowhound has rounded up some of our favorite gadgets to hit the market. Grab a bottle, your favorite glass and check them out. Cheers!
