Founder and CEO, James Kornacki, PHD, founded Üllo in 2014 in Chicago, deriving its title from the alchemy symbol, “Ü” meaning “purify,” thus Üllo stands for purified wine. Furthermore, Kornacki highlights how sulfites may may be useful to wine makers due to its potential to prevent spoilage and preserve the flavor of wine, however, it is unfavorable to sensitive wine drinkers in which allergy-like symptoms such as a stuffy nose or headaches/migraines can occur.
In a following statement, Kornacki shares his aunt’s personal experience encountering such symptoms saying, “My aunt is sulfite sensitive and couldn’t enjoy wine at our family gatherings. When I read that others had similar reactions, I felt the need to create a solution and with my background and education in chemistry, I had the knowledge to do so.”
Additionally, sulfates are added to all wine types, and high doses of sulfates are most commonly found in white wines because of the lack of tannins, a bitter-tasting organic compound to mountain natural flavor. So say hello to Üllo, the leading wine purifier that uses patented technology centered around its Selective Sulfate™ Filter, made to sift out sulfates so you can enjoy sipping a more inviting and refreshing wine. Whatsmore, all Üllo purifiers differ from other wine aerators and wine accessories because it gives you the choice to aerate your wine using the ‘on/off’ aerator switch to suffuse oxygen into red wines or to preserve the flavor profile of white wines.
The brand has several modern and easy to use purifiers that serve all your wine tasting pours. First is the Original Üllo Wine Purifier ($60) great for all reds, whites, and rosés that easily fits atop any glass and is suitable with all Üllo filters.
