Description

I bought a wine preservation system… aka a Coravin.  The Coravin system basically pours the wine out of a bottle without removing the cork and ultimately keeps the wine fresh in the bottle.  Today I showcase this new tool I bought on a fabulous red blend from southeastern Spain.

 

Juan Gil has become one of my favorite Spanish wine producers this year. I love that they value quality and tradition while operating on sustainability by respecting the land, being energy efficient throughout the winery and using natural resources.  They are fully organic and create high quality wines.

 

Tune in now to get the full details on how a Coravin works (watch me use it), hear me talk about Juan Gil and taste this amazing red blend with me.
