winesave - keeping opened wines perfectly
Wine lovers can now enjoy their favourite wines over days without the worry of spoilage thanks to a revolutionary new product, winesave™.
winesave™ stores argon gas under pressure which when dispensed into an open bottle preserves the wine by forming an inert barrier that stops spoilage from oxygen, without affecting the characteristics of the wine.
Unlike other products which claim to stop wine spoilage, winesave™ is not a combination of gases, but pure food-grade argon.
Argon is inert. It’s colourless, odourless and has no taste. Above all, it combines with nothing. That means it has no effect on anything it comes in contact with. And most important, argon is two and-a-half times heavier than air. Because of its weight, it falls through air and rests on whatever lies beneath it. Dispensed into an open wine bottle, it falls down and lies across the surface of the wine, forming a barrier between the precious liquid and the air.
The role of argon in preserving wine has been known and used by winemakers for many years. However, until now we have not had the technology to keep argon under pressure in an affordable commercial manner. This is the technology that brings winesave™ to life.
winesave™ inventor Daryl Davies says he had the idea for the product for a number of years. However, it was not until he returned to Melbourne in 2009 after 30 years overseas that he had the time to pursue the opportunity.
He has spent the year working with manufacturers in Australia and overseas to develop a product which meets demanding professional standards of restaurants, cafes and wineries as well as the wine enthusiast. winesave™ is affordable and precision packed in an inexpensive, easy to use container which is safe and environmentally friendly. The can and its components are all recyclable and of course, argon itself just returns to the atmosphere from where it originated.
Daryl says the first twelve months have been extraordinary with with a long list of acknowledgments which include the Robert Parker event in 2010, winesave’s use at Penfolds Red wine clinics in Canada and Australia, and a very positive review by one of the world’s leading MW’s Jancis Robinson and now the Burghound in Asia event.
Stop press: M. Philippe GUIGAL, Directeur General and oenologue of E. GUIGAL, makers of more 100-point Robert Parker wines than any other single wine producer, has given his unqualified support to winesave..
M. Guigal tested winesave at home at Chateau D'Ampuis during his wife Eve's pregnancy and was so impressed by it that he happily provided his quote and will have winesave on the tasting table at Chateau D'Ampuis where all Maison Guigal tastings take place.
