Coravin Timeless Six Plus Wine Preservation System - By-the-Glass

Our review of the Coravin Timeless Six Plus finds it best suited for wine lovers who want to enjoy single pours without committing to a full bottle. The biggest reason to buy is simple: it lets you pour from a corked bottle and keep the remaining wine fresh for weeks or months, combining a preservation system, three argon gas capsules and a quick aerator into a compact 14 piece kit. For anyone who likes sampling multiple bottles or preserving a prized bottle one glass at a time, this system delivers straightforward performance with a useful carrying case for storage.

Key Features

• 14 piece kit: The included Timeless Six preserver, three argon gas capsules, six screw cap replacements and accessories mean you can start pouring and preserving immediately without extra purchases.
• Preserves wine by the glass: Insert the device through the natural cork and pressurize the bottle to pour a glass while the rest of the bottle stays protected by inert argon gas.
• Integrated aerator: The Coravin aerator performs a 60 to 90 minute decant in seconds so you can open more expressive flavors right away.
• Ergonomic pour: The angled spout and trigger-driven pressurization make single-hand pours easy and controlled for smoother serving.
• Portable storage: A molded carrying case and sleeve keep the system and accessories organized for home or travel use.

Who It's For

The Timeless Six Plus is ideal for collectors, tasting hosts and casual drinkers who appreciate being able to sample many bottles or enjoy a single glass without wasting the rest. It particularly benefits anyone who wants to preserve open bottles for weeks or months using inert argon gas and who values the convenience of a ready kit with capsules and screw caps.

Those who should look elsewhere include buyers who plan to frequently work with screw-top bottles without the optional screw cap accessories, or shoppers looking for a device they can fully submerge for cleaning; the unit requires rinsing and careful drying rather than dishwasher use.
