Air Cork keeps your wine fresh – using a balloon
« Back to Article
The Air Cork is a device that keeps wine fresh by sealing it with a balloon-like bladder
The latex used for the bladder meets U.S. FDA standards for food contact, and is said not to affect the taste of the wine
The bladder can be deflated via a release valve on the pump
Article Summary
When it comes to resealing an opened bottle of wine, most people either use the cork that the bottle came with, or a hand-pumped vacuum stopper. Now, however, there’s another option – it’s called the Air Cork, although we also kind of like its previous name, the Wine Balloon.
