Coravin Model Three Black

The Coravin system makes it possible to pour a glass of wine without uncorking the bottle. The wine that remains in the bottle retains its quality and can be kept for years without losing taste.

By means of a stainless steel Teflon-coated needle that goes through the cork, the noble argon gas (prevents oxidation) is 'injected' into the bottle. This creates pressure, causing the wine to be 'pressed' out of the bottle by the same needle. Any oxygen that wants to enter the bottle is stopped by the argon, which is heavier than oxygen. By not removing the cork from the bottle, the wine can continue to develop, while it would normally oxidize once it has been poured.

Thanks to the Coravin, the quality of the wine is thus preserved and special wines - which usually remain in the wine cellar for a long time - can simply be served by the glass. The bottle remains unopened and untouched, but can be drunk.

The Coravin Model Three (3) is the successor of the Model 1 and 2 series and the biggest change is in the clamps (SmartClamps™) To use the wine system Coravin model Three, you simply clamp the system on the bottle of wine and push the needle through the cork. Now all you have to do is press the button, making it easy to pour wine.

This kit contains everything needed to use the Coravin system. The only thing you may need again in the long run are new Argon capsules. The needle that is included is suitable for almost all corks. After you have poured a glass, the needle is pulled out of the cork again. The same needle can - after cleaning - be used immediately for another bottle. So you only need one needle. Coravin Capsules have been specially developed for the Coravin. They ensure a perfect closing and pouring every time. These argon gas-filled capsules are the power source for the Coravin system. The amount of glasses that can be poured per capsule varies. On average, the capsule contains enough for 15 glasses of 15cl. The kit already contains 2 argon capsules and a screw cap module so is completely ready to use.

Naturally, all accessories such as other needles or new capsules are also available at Grandcruwijnen.
