Cool and Not-so-Cool Wines

In this modern age, everything seems to change: beliefs, principles, streets, technologies, and so on and so forth. Who would then be surprised to know that even wines seem to have left the 'classic' look to become a 'modern' piece of art?

I have said that wine is beyond a drinkable liquid, it is a 'lifestyle' which continues to influence one's existence, one's society and one's future...

Here are some gathered rather COOL and NOT-SO-COOL WINES... so it's up to you to decide, pick up your faves and put them in your collection! :)



REVELRY WINES



















Ever had problems opening a good bottle and not finishing it? If you're going to ask me, yes! I've experienced this many times... I had no choice but to recork since I was cheap and did not have enough bucks to buy a VacuVin and rubber stopper to preserve my wine (sigh**). Well, worry no more!!!

Revelry brand of Washington State winery has launched in August 2008 the second edition to its award winning package design.
It is a bottle and it is also a box containing 1.5 litre of a good wine! Besides it is also 100% recyclable.


The brand claims that the wine can last for weeks (up to 30 days or so) after opening. As delivered in their ad: "STAYS FRESH FOR WEEKS...IF IT LASTS THAT LONG."
A cleaner, more functional package will hit both restaurants and stores. As the company claims, 'Wine has never before been served like this'.
