People learned to make wine in time immemorial, perhaps even before they learned to write and read. But the most famous winemakers of the ancient world were the Greeks. As in all the fields they took up, the Greeks described in detail the process of making wine, technologies and the like. They divided wines into varieties depending on their place of origin and had their own wine accessories. Thanks to ancient sources, we also know that the Greeks had valuable varieties of this drink, made from grapes that had undergone centuries of selection, and Homer in one of his immortal lines mentions wines aged for eleven years.
Wine accessories as a gift
The ancient Greeks also showed remarkable ingenuity in the production of wine accessories. They had amphorae and skins made specifically for transporting wine, including long-term ones. And before pouring wine into a vessel, it was first fumigated with incense for a better smell. Accessories since those times, of course, have advanced greatly in their technical development. There are a large number of them, including on our website. We will consider accessories in the same order in which they are used when drinking wine.
Corkscrews, oddly enough, do not have such an ancient history as wine itself, having appeared in English pubs around the 17th century. Like any invention, corkscrews have changed a lot by our time and have turned into high-tech monsters. It is such devices that you will find on our website. We have automatic wine corkscrews that are mounted on the wall and open bottles with a simple push of the hand on the lever, as well as electronic ones that deal with the cork in seconds.
Of course, this is not as romantic as the fuss with a regular corkscrew, when each opening of a bottle is like a small adventure (you never know how it will all end), but for lovers of modern gadgets it will be a stunning gift.
Before pouring wine into glasses, experts advise first to let the wine soak in oxygen, to "breathe". This can be achieved with the help of two gifts of technological progress, even the ancient Greeks did not think of such a thing: aerators and wine decanters. Both of these devices are needed in order to saturate young wine with oxygen, which, through the oxidation process, reveals the taste of the wine, bringing it to readiness. In addition, with the help of a decanter, mature wine is easily freed from the pigmentary sediment that has formed over many years of wine's life.
Aerators are a kind of nozzle that is attached to the neck of the bottle and lets oxygen into it, saturating the wine. Decanters are, in fact, carafes with a narrow neck. Through it, oxygen enters the decanter, and the shape of this accessory allows the wine to separate from the tasteless sediment.
To sum up, we can say that decanters are more versatile in working with both young and mature wines. Aerators work better with young varieties because they provide oxygen access to the drink throughout the depth, and not just on the surface. On our website, decanters are very different in appearance, but equally effective in work. 
So, the bottle is open, the wine has infused. Now it needs to be poured into glasses. They are divided into several types depending on what kind of wine you will pour. Glasses for red wine should be wide and voluminous due to the richness and tartness of the drink. In such a glass, the wine will be easier to reveal its taste when interacting with oxygen. White wine glasses, on the other hand, are not as voluminous and wide. This shape will allow you to better experience the taste of white wine, because it is not so concentrated. The narrow top of glasses for sparkling wines is designed to retain bubbles and aroma for as long as possible. On our website you will find any type of glass, regardless of your preferences in wine. And if necessary, a whole set of various glasses for all occasions.
Wine has long been overgrown with many traditions and accessories for maximum disclosure of its taste. No matter what you are looking for, on the Fama website you will definitely find the wine accessory you were looking for. And you can be sure that your find will be not only functional, but also aesthetically match the wine you want to treat yourself and your loved ones with.
