Complete Wine-enjoying Solution With Infrared Thermometer

Ah, there's nothing quite like kicking back on the patio with an ice cold beer or a nice glass of wine, especially on a sunny day like today. Sometimes, though, it can be hard to determine whether that bottle of Merlot is ready to go. Well, Hammacher came along and developed an infrared wine thermometer that also comes in with a built-in knife and corkscrew. It's a complete wine-enjoying solution in the palm of your hand.


Available here for a hefty $130, this world's "only" infrared thermometer and corkscrew displays the temperature of that bottle (I'd imagine it won't work with your boxed wine, sorry Fabrizio) with a touch a button.

Now, I'm no wine connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination, but I've been told that the ideal temperature for a red would be in the 65-66 degree range, so clearly the bottle being displayed isn't quite ready. Toss 'er back in the cellar, boys.
