Started by Greg Lambrecht in 1999, Coravin was born from Greg's love for great wines and the desire to enjoy the best wines by the glass without fear of them oxidizing after opening.
For restaurants, an extensive wine by the glass list offers many opportunities, but is not completely without problems. Several opened bottles at the same time may cause waste and increase the risk that each glass served to the customer is not always of the same quality. This is especially emphasized in sparkling wines, where the bubbles subside quickly after opening the bottle.
On the other hand, a more comprehensive wine list by the glass can achieve a competitive advantage by making more interesting wines available to consumers, thereby increasing customer satisfaction. A wider wine list by the glass can also encourage the consumer to try many different wines during the same evening, increasing the average purchase amount spent on wines.
The challenges mentioned above are answered by Coravin, which was released on the market in its current form already in 2011. Coravin's cap-penetrating needle and cartridge containing argon gas eliminate the risk caused by glass sales, enabling all its advantages. Served this way, the wine stays good in the bottle for several months.
In 2021, Coravin Sparkling was also released to the market, which makes it possible for restaurants to serve every glass of sparkling wine perfectly bubbling. Whether it's Recaredon Terrers Corpinnat , Michel Gonet , known for his Blanc de Blancs, or the ever-lovely Le Bullet , Coravin Sparkling ensures a perfect sparkling experience until the last drop in the bottle.
