Coravin: Taste a wine without opening it
You places the
object on the neck of the bottle, where it is maintain by a small pliers, you
drill the cork and the cap with the needle, you press on a little button to
pour some wine in a glass and release the volume equivalent of an inert gas
(with argon) from the bottle to preserve the wine left in the bottle. The
second generation of Coravin differs on certain aspects:
- The new needle, thinner, allows
pouring more wine.
- The pliers have been modified to
facilitate the opening and closing.
- The caps’ loading has been modified
so that the gas installation can be simpler and prevent the wine from
oxidizing.
With this new
system, you can finally taste a wine without interrupting its aging, taste
different wines with friends or organise a wine tasting without waste.
Small inconvenient,
this model is only available in the United States!
