I was dropping by the various wine bars in Bellagio (as one does when working) — and at Aperitivo Et Al, Andrea demonstrated a clever tool that pulls wine from a bottle with the ease of a nurse pulling blood from an arm. With the Coravin, he can serve fancy wine by the glass without worrying about finishing the bottle before the wine goes bad.
Maybe I don’t get out much. (When I got back to my hotel and Googled the Coravin, I learned that it was invented in 2011 in Massachusetts.) Is this old news?

Thirst trap!!
Rick, just don't tease us!! 1:50
👍
If there's liquid being displaced, air would still get into the bottle. Does the Coravin inject a non-oxygen substitute into the bottle?
Cool. Where can I get one? Thanks Steve. Love Amarone.
Maybe old news, but perfect timing for me Rick! Thanks, as always!
Salute! 🍷😜
make a good and long video
"Basta" means stop, but in a negative and demanding way. These are better; "che è sufficiente", "che è abbastanza", or just say, "sufficiente" or "abbastanza".
very interesting Rick!! awesome info …like always
He looks like Davydenko
I own one of these. Very cool piece of tech. As it pours, it replaces the air in the bottle with argon gas to preserve the wine.
I don't need that thing, because if I open a bottle of wine you can bet I'm going to drink the whole thing…right away.
I am friends with the owner of the bar with the largest by the glass selection in the world (about 405) and he has 3 coravines
Oh I need one of those. Wonder if it works on Champagne. 🥂
it's to bad the coravin is so over priced. not really for the average user. could do the same with a needle and syringe lol
RICK! You should do livestreams.
Best Purchase I ever made in my life
That's a very fancy tool.
