Ravi is based on the innovative concept of cooling wine at the very moment it is served. It is not the bottle that is cooled, but the wine itself. The cooling process takes place as the wine passes through an internal tube in the Ravi. Use of the valve allows you to regulate the amount of time the wine is cooled. The internal tube of the Ravi is made from the same stainless steel used for wine fermentation tanks and maintains the wine’s characteristics and never alters the taste. The Ravi will cool wine within seconds which means no more waiting and no more messy ice buckets to contend with. Since not all wines are enjoyed at the same temperature, Ravi has a valve that controls the flow of wine to regulate the temperature. Store the Ravi in the freezer, when needed place the Ravi into your wine bottle and in mere seconds you can savor your wine cooled to exactly the right temperature. Unfortunately, red wines are usually served too warm and the alcohol tends to predominate, concealing the fruit of the wine. Ravi enables your wine to instantly go from room temperature to that of a wine cellar. When enjoying a white wine or a rose, the Ravi can cool your wine to perfection. The Ravi was born from two years of work with oenologists, designers and other wine-making specialists. To use, simply keep the Ravi in the freezer so it is ready to go. When needed, insert the Ravi into the bottle neck as you would a cork, and pour. The wine is chilled as it passes through the frozen stainless steel tube. The air hole or valve allows you to control the temperature drop. Covering the hole slows the flow of the wine, the more time it spends in the Ravi, the colder your wine will get. Hand wash. Made in Canada.

Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 “Pale plonk packs an acidic punch!” says the BBC, Well, it does and it doesn’t. A tooth can withstand a level of acidity, and grapes do vary in acid levels. What is detremental to teeth is the time that they are exposed to this acid. A typical wine drinker, swallows their wine down in seonds, whereas a taster swills the wine around their mouth and then spits it. In this time, the wine, Red or White can have a detrimental affect on the teeth. Loads of noise on twitter for the story on http://twitter.com/winewarecouk and http://twitter.com/thirstforwine.

So what does White wine actually do to teeth?

It should be pointed out that the erosion of teeth by wine is the result of extensive wine use that would also lead to damaged liver and all sorts of other problems. The typical wine drinker who sips a glass of wine at dinner or with their evening meal should not be ‘scared off’ by the tooth decay headlines, remember 100 year old women in Italy swear that wine was the secret of their longevity.

White wine stains teeth:

I think that anyone who has drank a few glasses of Red would agree that, yes, it does. Has it ever crossed your mind how this is? “Red wine, unlike white, contains a highly-pigmented substance known as chromogen,” explained Dr. “The acids in wine create rough spots and grooves that enable chemicals in other beverages that cause staining, such as coffee and tea, to penetrate deeper into the tooth” says Dr Wolff or the University College of Dentistry New York.

As you can see Dr Wolff mentioned wine and not a specific colour of wine, all wine can damage your teeth.

Stop wine erosion on teeth?

1) Alkaline mouthwashes are highly recommended

2) Proper brushing of your teeth with a soft tooth brush is encouraged.

3) Drinking with food is also a good idea as acidic food starts a natural reaction called tooth remineralisation—a salivary function that’s helps restore the teeth’s balance.

4) To aide remineralisation of your teeth, please wait for 20 mins after food before cleaning your teeth.

5) Cheese can also help as it contains calcium in a high concentration

I hope this is helped a little towards taking away the fear factor of White wine.

Think I need a drink after all that …
