    Did you know there's a gadget that lets you pour wine while the bottle's still corked!

    Yes, I found that hard to believe too, but as you'll see in the video this user-friendly wine system does let you pour a glass of wine with the cork intact. And it keeps the rest of the bottole of wine safe from oxidation, allowing it to continue to age naturally. To use, click on the Coravin device and a "pouring needle" allows access to wine without cork damage! Remove the needle and the cork reseals itself and continues protecting the wine. Argon gas, an inert gas used in the wine-making process, protects the remaining wine from oxidation. Coravin fits on a variety of sized standard wine bottles, and they even made an adapter for screw-on caps. (That's mostly on the wine I drink.) There a many designs and systems available starting at $199.99. After you use the included Argon cartridge(s), new ones average about $4 to $6 each and are good for up to “15 Pours”.
