For more than a century, the PEUGEOT name has been synonymous with French gourmet cooking, but the French are also renowned for another gastronomic experience: wine. In the recent past, an opportunity arose for PEUGEOT to lend its name to a family of wine products and, in turn, bring its penchant for quality and innovation to this side of the gourmet experience.
In 2006, PEUGEOT acquired a well-known French producer and distributor of some of the finest wine accessories available anywhere. Among the products offered: a wide range of corkscrews; specialized wine decanters; service accessories; and tasting glasses, highlighted by the legendary “Les Impitoyables” line of glasses. |
 |
Since then, PEUGEOT has been utilizing its design talents to develop new products for this market. Among the first introduced: the Elis rechargeable electric corkscrew, inspired by a combination of the Elis pepper and salt mills and the double spindle corkscrews made popular in the early 19th century. |

| Wine Glasses |
If the quality of ingredients, vinification process and storage are the most important factors to influence the quality of a wine before the bottle is opened, then the glass it is poured into is the next most important.
PEUGEOT’s approach to wine glasses is simplicity itself: each glass has an intended purpose, for which it works exceptionally well. From the incomparable “Les Impitoyables” signature series of glasses for the well educated wine taster, to the compact and extraordinary Esprit 180 line, through to Les Universels: each glass is designed to give its user the maximum benefit of all that the wine or spirit has to offer. |

| Wine Decanters |
A decanter can serve many purposes, but just like wine glasses, there is no one decanter truly designed for all applications.
PEUGEOT decanters are separated into different categories:
 |
Decanters for Mature Red Wines and White Wines |
 |
Decanters for Young Red Wines – Traditional |
 |
Decanters for Young Red Wines – Ducks |
 |
Aeration Sets for Young Red Wines |

| Wine Aerators |
Very young red wines - those under 3 years of age - are considered immature and require intensive breathing to awaken them. Intensive breathing, via the act of aeration, forces the wine to be rapidly exposed to oxygen and turns the wines molecules. This develops the wines flavors and aromas, and smoothes the harsh tannins that are so often present in young reds.
PEUGEOT’s aerators not only perform their aerating function exceptionally well, but they also create an entertaining visual display while doing so. |

| Wine Accessories |
| Oenophiles – wine aficionados – understand all too well that the enjoyment of a wine starts well before the bottle is opened and the glass is poured. The appreciation of any wine often begins with an anticipation of what that wine can offer in terms of colors, aromas and flavors. Most wine lovers will agree that the proper tools and atmosphere can enhance the senses and make the wine experience that much better. |
