The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus of treating wine to improve the wine's taste. This is accomplished by treating the wine with a magnetic field formed by one or more magnets, preferably at least two magnets. These magnets are positioned with one magnet at the base of a container that is holding the wine and another magnet at the top of the container.

I claim: 1. An apparatus for improving the taste of a beverage in a container said container having a top and a bottom, said beverage containing a polar molecule, said apparatus having a base for the bottom of said container, said base comprising a first magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage at the bottom of the container and a second magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage at the top of the container said second magnet being contained in a stopper at least a portion of said stopper being adopted to be received by an orifice in the top of said container. 2. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the beverage contains an alcohol. 3. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the beverage is coffee. 4. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein the beverage is a wine. 5. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein said base comprises a top member, a bottom member and a side wall connecting the top and bottom members said magnet being between said top member and said bottom member. 6. The apparatus according to claim 5 wherein said first magnet is a ring magnet. 7. The apparatus according to claim 1 wherein said means for applying a magnetic force to the top of said container comprises a stopper for an orifice in said container. 8. The apparatus according to claim 7 wherein said stopper comprises a top member and a plug member extending therefrom, said plug member being shaped to be inserted into the orifice of the container. 9. The apparatus according to claim 8 wherein the plug has a neck where said plug member is connected to said top member and a tip on said plug opposite said neck, said plug member being narrower in cross-section at said tip than at the neck. 10. An apparatus for improving the taste of a beverage in a container said container having a top and a bottom, said beverage containing a polar molecule, said apparatus having a base for the bottom of said container, said base comprising a magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage wherein said base comprises a top member, a bottom member and a side wall connecting the top and bottom members said magnet being between said top member and said bottom member, said magnet having a first surface and a second surface, said first surface being adjacent to the bottom of the container and said second surface being on the opposite side of the magnet from the first surface, said apparatus further comprising a stopper said stopper having a magnet present therein and at least a portion of said stopper being adapted to be received in an orifice at the top of said container. 11. The apparatus according to claim 10 wherein at least one magnet has 600 to 1400 surface Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 12. The apparatus according to claim 10 wherein at least one magnet has 800 to 1200 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 13. The apparatus according to claim 10 wherein at least one magnet has 900 to 1100 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 14. The apparatus according to claim 12 wherein said magnet in said base has its south pole facing downwardly. 15. An apparatus for improving the taste of a beverage in a container said container having a top and a bottom, said beverage containing a polar molecule, said apparatus having a base for the bottom of said container, said base comprising a magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage, wherein said magnet is a ring magnet, said magnet having a first surface and a second surface, said first surface being adjacent to the bottom of the container and said second surface being on the opposite side of the magnet from the first surface, said apparatus further comprising a stopper said stopper having a magnet present therein and at least a portion of said stopper being adapted to be received in an orifice at the top of said container. 16. The apparatus according to claim 15 wherein at least one magnet has 600 to 1400 surface Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 17. The apparatus according to claim 15 wherein at least one magnet has 800 to 1200 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 18. The apparatus according to claim 15 wherein at least one magnet has 900 to 1100 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 19. An apparatus for improving the taste of a beverage in a container said container having a top and a bottom, said beverage containing a polar molecule, said apparatus having a base for the bottom of said container, said base comprising a magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage, said magnet having a first surface and a second surface, said first surface being adjacent to the bottom of the container and said second surface being on the opposite side of the magnet from the first surface, said apparatus further comprising a stopper said stopper having a magnet present therein and at least a portion of said stopper being adapted to be received in an orifice at the top of said container, said stopper further comprising a top member and a plug member extending therefrom, said plug member being shaped to be inserted into the orifice of the container. 20. The apparatus according to claim 19 wherein the plug has a neck where said plug member is connected to said top member and a tip on said plug opposite said neck, said plug member being narrower in cross-section at said tip than at the neck. 21. The apparatus according to claim 20 wherein the top member is larger in cross-section than the cross-section of the container at the orifice. 22. The apparatus according to claim 20 wherein said magnet is a disk in the plug member. 23. The apparatus according to claim 19 wherein at least one magnet has 600 to 1400 surface Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 24. The apparatus according to claim 19 wherein at least one magnet has 800 to 1200 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 25. The apparatus according to claim 19 wherein at least one magnet has 900 to 1100 Gauss on the surface of the magnet adjacent to the container. 26. An apparatus for improving the taste of a beverage in a container said container having a top and a bottom, said beverage containing a polar molecule, said apparatus having a base for the bottom of said container, said base comprising a magnet that applies a magnetic force to the beverage, said magnet having a first surface and a second surface, said first surface being adjacent to the bottom of the container and said second surface being on the opposite side of the magnet from the first surface, said apparatus further comprising a stopper said stopper having a magnet present therein and at least a portion of said stopper being adapted to be received in an orifice at the top of said container, wherein said magnets of said stopper and said base have their fields aligned such that a circle of magnetic force is formed. 27.
