…Voodoo Chile…Catania Wine Enhancer…

Imagine opening any bottle of wine and having the ultimate drinking experience. Total sensory enjoyment. The winemaker’s craft will be realized to the full potential. How about reducing or even eliminating  those pesky headaches possibly caused by red wine? But wait! In just minutes you can also improve the flavor of your coffee, water, beer and spirits as well!  A secret mix of no less than 11 semi precious gems along with other earth elements that are set in clear epoxy.  Our Catania Wine Enhancer is 4 1/2″ in diameter and 3/4″ high and encased in stainless steel. Resonant sound waves and earth elements will work together to make young and any wines approachable within minutes.

Robert Catania is a graduate of the Culinary Institute in Hyde Park, NY. Dr Masura Emoto is a Japanese research scientist. Emoto discovered that sound frequencies can heal and affect water. Catania studied Emoto’s research and applied the idea that energy fields make liquids better for the body to his Catania Wine Enhancer. The Enhancer claims to make our beloved wine safer and even more appealing to drink! All we needed now was someone to try the darn thing.

A test couple who is the  core of  Mo’s inner sanctum volunteered. I’ll call them Priscilla and Elvis. Priscilla is a no nonsense business woman. No amount of Enhancer hype would sway her logical mind even in a blind trial. Elvis is a professional businessman and an oenophile. His  exceptional palate world be needed for this experiment. The couple took the Enhancer and  selected the Anderson’s Conn Valley 2005 Right Bank for the trial.

Red and I waited for the phone to ring at Mo’s. What would Priscilla and Elvis think of the Enhancer? Why would you want to change the natural order of the wine world? Many questions were volleyed between us. Finally the call we were waiting for. The surprise in Elvis’ voice was evident as he gave us the results of the trial.( the Enhancer gives you specific instructions with time guidelines to not over enhance your wine) Both Priscilla and Elvis could taste a difference in the enhanced and un-enhanced wine in the 6-8 minutes using the Enhancer. The wine had gone through a transformation of sorts, smoother, less tannins making it more approachable. Priscilla had tasted the two samples blind with Elvis as the control.

The Wine Enhancer sits on the desk in the box that it came in. We haven’t spoken much of the Enhancer other than making a few jokes about trying it on a weary back or knee. I own a wine enhancer, It’s  the area of my basement I made into a wine cellar. You can call me Scully if you want to. I’ll put on some Jimi and wait for my wine to enhance the old fashioned way. As the winemakers intended their wine to be…

Cheers, Sharon
