Learn about Repour, a new and smart way to save your wine
/For those of us who drink wine, there’s likely been a time where you’ve had to re-cork an open bottle with the intent of saving it for later.
And chances are, the second uncorking has been met with “bad” wine.
It taste’s off by varying degrees, so if you’ve got the majority of the bottle remaining, that’s a lot of wine poured down the sink.
What’s the culprit that can cause unnecessary wine waste? Oxygen.
Why? Well, once oxygen is in the bottle after it’s re-corked/capped, that oxygen speeds up the lifespan of wine and raises the risk of it going bad when you re open it.
The solution? Repour.
How does it work?
These innovative wine cap eliminates 100% of the oxygen in the bottle through a special packet inside the stopper. The material in the packet reacts with oxygen until there isn’t any oxygen left.
Also, one Repour stopper can keep a 750 ml bottle fresh up to two months, reducing the rush to consume the balance of the wine bottle.
And you can reuse the same stopper multiple times on the same bottle. So if you live alone and enjoy one glass of wine a week, you can use the same Repour a few times until the bottle is finished.
Here’s a video demonstrating how it works:
Personally, as someone who lives alone and does enjoy wine, I’ve used Repour and can attest to its ease of use and effectiveness.
Sometimes I want a single glass and other times I’ll want two. I’ll rush to drink the balance of the bottle within 24 hours of opening it, even though I may not want to - I don’t like to waste any food or drink if I can help it.
To use Repour, simply peel the tab off at the bottom of the stopper when you’ve finished consuming what you want from your wine bottle, attach the stopper and that’s it - you’re done.
