Once you open a bottle of wine, the oxygen in the air\u00a0begins to act on the wine. At first, it is a good thing because oxygen allows the aromas of the wine to come forth. &#8220;Let your wine breathe&#8221; is commonly told by wine experts. It gives the wine time to open and let its inner character shine. \u00a0With time, a day or two, oxygen\u00a0becomes wine\u2019s worst enemy. If one is unable to finish a bottle of wine, you can use these various devices and strategies to preserve the wine as long as possible.<\/p>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block; text-align: center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3584518074112100\" data-ad-slot=\"7809642498\"><\/ins><br \/><script><br \/>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});<br \/>\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Preserving wine\u00a0gadgets<\/h3>\n<p>There are a ton of preserving wine gadgets\u00a0on the market for saving that unfinished bottle of wine. One of the hottest devices for preserving wine is the Coravin Model One or Model Two. It is being used widely in tasting rooms and restaurants. It uses a unique system that pierces the cork with a fine needle. \u00a0A blast of inert argon seals the wine from oxygen, preserving the wine indefinitely. See the video below for additional information.<\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">New in the wine preserving arena is the Repour device. The base price is $9.99 for four stoppers. Each stopper has a tab that you pull off. Somehow the stopper absorbs oxygen from the bottle. I tried this with a bottle of wine that had maybe 6 ounces remaining. Two weeks later, the wine was just as tasty as the day I opened the wine. Last week I tested again on two bottles of wine that I wanted to compare over several different dinner meals. Once again, this Repour device worked perfectly. Excellent invention for the person who does not finish a bottle of wine.\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.repour.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Repour Website<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.repour.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Repour<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B07545HCCF\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B07545HCCF&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkId=8297d3cb586799ea2959a1d2e75cc960\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Coravin Model Two Plus Pack<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=winecountryge-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B07545HCCF\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01N7WQCKB\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B01N7WQCKB&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkId=b8d4d75abf8ba18b99d638619557f62d\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ZOS HALO Wine Preserver<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=winecountryge-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B01N7WQCKB\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00196NQ7I\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00196NQ7I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lovin Vacuum Pump with Wine Stoppers<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0049TKVMA\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0049TKVMA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Sharper Image Wsi-vs100 Automatic Wine Vacuum Sealer, Black<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0000DCS18\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0000DCS18\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oenophilia Private Preserve Wine Preserver<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B00418487I\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B00418487I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Skybar WP0550 ONE 1-Chamber Wine Preservation System<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For Champagne\/sparkling wine, use one of the many clamp devices made for Champagne bottles and refrigerate.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"color: #000000;\">\n<li>Here is one example of sparkling wine clamp:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0032AM3NM\/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=winecountryge-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0032AM3NM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Epicureanist Wine Stopper, Black<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>The refrigerator for preserving wine<\/h3>\n<p>Put the wine, red or white, into the fridge as soon as possible.
