Tools I Use Everyday.
It’s important to have the right tools and resources, and I’ve made it easy so that you do not have to search any further. It’s frustrating to buy things that simply don’t work, however, I’ve compiled a list of tried-and-true resources, tools, and everything helpful in your wine adventures!
Wine Preservation
Coravin Model One System
This is the mac-daddy of wine preservation systems, and I highly suggest this if you love to try different wines but are afraid to waste them. The Coravin system gives you the ability to never pop the cork on any wine, have a glass to try, and then store the bottle like it was never opened!
Honestly, this thing paid for itself very, very quickly with my wife and me. She wanted white, I wanted red. I wanted to try my $150 bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon I’ve been cellaring, but was too scared to open it and find it not ready. In any situation, this system gives you the flexibility to try multiple wines with no risk. Check it out!
Repour Wine Saver - Wine Preserver & Stopper
Looking to save that bottle that was opened for a glass or so? Look no further. Repour Wine Savers are incredible technology to reduce waste of your partially drank bottles. Simply pull it out of the box, peel off the protective end, and use it as a normal stopper.
How does it work, you ask? Repour has a unique FDA-approved oxygen absorbing material within each stopper, which literally sucks all of the bad contaminants out of the bottle so that you can enjoy a bottle days, weeks, and sometimes even months afterwards. Although you can only use these on one bottle each, you save tons of money in the long run by not throwing away valuable juice!
The other great thing about these are that you can purchase in different size packs to accommodate your needs. What are you waiting for? Click below to learn more!
Wine Condoms - Protection for Wine Lovers
I came across this at a beverage conference, and frankly, I thought it was HILARIOUS! Even more importantly, it works like a charm! Whether you’re looking for a great stocking stuffer, a prank gift that’s actually useful, or simply looking for a talking point at a party, Wine Condom is the perfect wine preservation system for you!
The Wine Condom provides a shrink-fit water-tight seal around your bottle so that it keeps the good stuff in (the wine) and the bad stuff out (the oxygen). Better yet, they’re totally reusable! Plus, it works on various types and sizes of bottles. Always use protection when drinking your wine. ;-) Click below to learn more!
