This Fashionable Bag Can Carry and Dispense Wine

Posted on by

wine-bag-1

Girls are always carrying so much stuff in their bags, you have to wonder just how much of it is actually useful. I mean, do you really need to carry your entire makeup collection, “just in case”? Why not just get this Wine Dispensing Travel Tote that can pack a whopping 5 litres of wine, and cleverly dispense it through a spigot on the side? You just buy the plastic bag of wine, cram it in there, and be the life of any party you go to. You don’t even have to go to a party, you can be the party. There’ll even be room left in the bag for a few trinkets after you’ve stuffed it full of fermented grape juice. The design printed on the bag might even be considered fashionable by someone with questionable taste, so it’s totally worth the $136USD asking price.

Somm Wine Dispenser is a Wino’s Dream

Posted on by

There are wine drinkers and then there are WINE drinkers. The former will have a glass of chardonnay every now and then, while the latter worries that their wine will go bad and wants it chilled and ready for action. Nothing wrong with either type of wine drinker, but if you are the latter, the Somm is for you. Somm is a fancy wine chiller that keeps wine fresh and ready to partake at a moment’s notice.

The Somm has a temperature control to chill each wine just right, and aeration control for red wines. Plus, it automatically adjusts its settings based on the winemaker’s exact temperature and aeration recommendations.

But before you get too excited about putting your ’68 Chateau Lafite in here, the Somm only works with special containers of wine. These giant cans are designed to stay fresh for longer periods than an opened bottle. Each Sylo can holds 2.5 liters of wine, which is about three bottles. Its makers say they already have a number of wines lined up that represent a broad array of tastes.

It also is app-connected, allowing you to check what wine is in it and how much is left, and it learns your palate by seeing what wines you drink and like. The makers of Somm have raised over $100,000 on Kickstarter and you can get a Somm for $199 with shipping projected for this November.

Kuvée Smart Wine Bottle Keeps Wine Fresh for a Month

Posted on by

I’m not a drinker, I have poor impulse control as it is. There are plenty of folks out there that like a glass or two every night, but wine goes bad once you open it. If you like to have a glass here and there and don’t want to pour wine you don’t finish, Kuvée might be for you.

This thing is a fancy wine bottle that consists of two parts. The black larger bottle slips over the top of a silver aluminum container which holds your wine. The outer bottle has a LCD, temperature sensor, rechargeable battery, and other tech inside. It opens the inner bottle and lets you pour the wine out while keeping it fresh for up to 30 days. You can also view information about the wine, check remaining life, number of glasses left, and order more wine directly from the Kuvee using its touchscreen.

The catch is you will need to buy wines packaged in the fancy aluminum bottles for the system to work, sort of like Keurig coffee capsules. Also, you may have to wait a while to receive yours, as each state has different rules on direct-to-consumer wine shipments. It’s too bad they couldn’t make it work with off-the-shelf wine bottles.

The system is being funded via Indiegogo, and has already exceeded its goal. A pledge of $199(USD) gets you the Kuvée smart bottle and four 750ml bottles of wine.

Wine Bottle Fire Extinguisher: In Case of Wine of Fire

Posted on by

The best place to keep a fire extinguisher is somewhere where you can reach for it quickly. Same goes for wine, so I guess it makes sense that your fire extinguisher should look like a bottle of wine. Plus, this extinguisher in disguise allows you to keep everything aesthetically pleasing. Normally these things stick out like a sore thumb.

Now you don’t have to hide them in cabinets, under the sink, or somewhere else out of sight and that means it is within reach in case of a fire. That’s why The Wine Bottle Fire Extinguisher is so brilliant. It looks just like a standard bottle of red wine.

It’s $149(USD) and comes in a wooden gift box. Your wife will love it because it blends into the environment.

The best place to keep a fire extinguisher is somewhere where you can reach for it quickly. But, in the name of keeping an aesthetically pleasing environment, we tend to hide them in cabinets, under the sink, or someplace out of sight. That could add a few seconds of frantic looking around until you can save your home from a fire. So to solve this issue, The Wine Bottle Fire Extinguisher looks like a standard bottle of red wine, and would look just fine sitting among your carefully thought out decor. Of course, in your panic you’ll have to remember to reach for this rather than your fancy Bordeaux, but we think it’s a decent effort to combine form with function. It’s $149 and comes in a nice wooden gift box.
