Pros

  • Easy to Use

Cons

  • Non Functional
  • Bad design

Best Uses

The basic problem here is that this product can't work. It claims to seal the bottle, but if that were true the pressure differential would prevent pouring. The concept is apparently that the shape of the pour spout will retain the inert gas while pouring. In practice one can hear the transfer of air, and the results certainly make clear that the wine is not protected from exposure to air with repeated pourings. You can get the same effect with the $10 disposable canisters of inert gas.

Dear Wine Enthusiast customer, we at Preservino are very pleased to offer you the Preservino Professional Wine Preserving Kit. An absolute “must have†for the Wine Enthusiast in your life, experts agree that the Preservino is: “Best in Class for Wine by the Glass†The moment you open a bottle of wine, exposure to air begins to change the wines flavor, color and aroma. Preservino uses Argon gas to lock in freshness for 2 weeks. Simply insert the Preservino’s nozzle into the custom stopper, inject the Argon gas, and…voila…the Preservino protects every bottle perfectly. Patented “Click & Pour†technology means that individual glasses can be poured directly through the stopper, without losing the Argon gas. “Click & Pour†saves up to 67% in Argon gas usage. The Preservino can preserve multiple bottles allowing you to pair different wines and foods in an evening. You can open a white wine with your appetizer, a red wine with your entrée and a dessert wine and never waste a drop. The Preservino uses 100% argon gas to replace air in the opened bottle—the same gas used during wine production. Experts agree that argon gas is the very best way to preserve opened wine. Included are: 1 Preservino dispenser, 1 argon cartridge, 2 Chrome Plated “Click & Pour†stoppers all packaged in a handsome rosewood gift box. The Preservino Professional is the perfect gift for the Wine Enthusiast on your list! Open a bottle today and revel in the same delicious taste many days later without spoilage. The Preservino Professional allows you to open your fine wines more often, knowing that you’ll enjoy every drop. Cheers! Mike Lerner VP Sales and Marketing Preservino

Problem

 
3.0

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

When inserting a gas cartridge into the unit and seating the gas cartridge against the dispensing valve, the cartridge holder and the valve will not mate all the way back together. It appears that the installation is faulty, especially since the picture on the box shows a unit in use with the two halves completely together (There are no detailed instructions; only a pictograph on the box lid). So what's the problem, you ask? Well, now the unit will not fit nicely back into the precisely cut insert in the wood presentation box. I also wasted two cartridges taking it back apart thinking I had it wrong. (When you unscrew the unit, all gas remaining in the cartridge escapes). Please don't make my mistake and think that the mfgr. must not have meant for it to function this way.

I found this product very useful. My husband and I don't usually finish a bottle of wine, not to mention the stray bottles leftover from a party, and this product is so easy to use and preserve the wine so we can finish every last drop. It is quick and easy to use.

I got this as a gift, it's great for those time when you just want a glass of wine, or you have red and white wine drinkers, and you're opening multiple bottles. It keeps them fresh!

This product works great for our monthly wine tasting parties. Special wines are preserved for days afterwards with absolutely no change in the flavor. Thanks for a great inexpensive product!!

  • Leaks gas

Best Uses

Bought it after all the fan fare. Used it as recommnended but the stoppers are not meant for every wine bottle. On some wine bottles the stoppers provide a very light seal and you can hear the hissing of the gas as it escapes. It spoiled a couple of good bottles of wine that had a third still left inside.

We purchased this product to see if it really made a difference. We had never used anything like this so it took us a bit to figure out exactly how much gas to use. But we were pleasantly surprised at how much difference this made in the taste of the wine. Even over a short period of time (a couple of days) the wine's taste would change. But now, it tastes as good as the day we opened it! We would highly recommend this product.

At work we pour wine samples, and i can save open bottles for weeks and still sell the wine to customers since it tastes as good. I also love it at home, I can keep mutiple bottles open at a time.

It is great for having a glass of wine and not wasting the whole bottle. Also makes it fun to open many wines for food/wine pairing or comparing similar varietals, etc.

A great improvement over the "pump out the air" systems. Preserves the "essence" of the wine whether that is robust flavor or crisp refreshing fruit. A must have to save that great wine you just can't finish the first time.

I used to throw away bottles of wine that were still half full because I like to drink just one glass of wine now and then so the wine would go bad. With this product, it preserves my wine. Also, I like to bring home wine from restaurants and it's great to use with that too!
