Best Wine Preservation Systems in 2022

At over $300, the Model Two Plus Pack is on the pricy side and probably more suited to the wine connoisseur rather than the bargain wine drinker. But with its design credentials and reputation from one of the market leaders Coravin, you certainly get a lot of wine preserver wizardry for the price.

The Coravin Model Two Plus Pack is a good investment option if you prefer to buy a top notch vintage to drink and enjoy slowly, one glass at a time rather than glug through a $10 bargain. Its wine spray, which forms a protective layer on the wine to keep oxygen out, comes with an impressive 99.99% pure argon gas rating. This super-blaster gives the contents of your opened bottle a high level of protection against oxidization and preserving the quality taste of your wine for several weeks.

An oldie but a goodie, the Vacu Vin was one of the very first wine vacuums on the market and its certainly stayed the distance with its great valuepump that’s speedy at sucking out the air (but not the joy) from your vino drinko.

Its manufacturers say that the Vacu Vin can keep your leftover wine tasting fresh for up to a week and who are we to argue. Similar in looks to a heavyweight bottle opener, the Vacu Vin is super easy to use and does the job at hand, effectively extracting the cork and resealing the bottle with a rubber wine stopper. You then create a neat little vacuum inside the bottle by pumping until you hear the distinct Vacu Vin click.  The seal can be quickly removed when you are ready for another glass, then pump away to reseal. Easy! Great for using at home, although it can’t work its vacuum magic on sparkling wines. Oh well…it’ll just have to be the Beaujolais.

The Aervana is a super little aerating wine dispenser with some sophisticated looks that can help to really improve the taste and freshness of even your supermarket bargain wine.

While not specifically a wine preserver, the Aervana works to boost the taste and quality of the wine as you drink it, helping to preserve its freshness and flavor in the process. By actually adding air to your bottle, rather than sucking it out, the Aervana works to counter the tannin effect to soften the taste of your vino. It’s a bit of a miracle worker too, taking the rough edge off a cheaper wine as well as helping to mature a younger classic vintage. The Aervana works best with red wines or stronger whites such as Burgundies and white Bordeaux.

We return to the classy Coravin but this time the younger – and cheaper –wine preserver brother, the Model One. Much more lightweight than the Coravin Model Two Plus Pack, the One has been designed with the more infrequent, casual wine drinker in mind. But while its target user isn’t necessarily popping a wine cork every night or adding to their extensive wine collection, the Model One still provides superior wine and taste preservation.

The Model One wine preservation system has a simpler design but uses the same argon gas technology to protect your wine from oxidization. The only noticeable difference is the pouring time, which is simply not as fast as its bigger brother. But when it comes to a deliciously fresh glass of Vino Rouge or Blanco, some things are simply worth waiting for. And if you are a beer lover as well, make sure you check our guide to the top strongest beers on the market today.

Now here’s a tried and tested product that’s perfect for the casual wine drinker who’s reluctant to waste that half bottle of Chenin Blanc, all at an affordable price. The Private Preserve True is a wine spray in an ingeniously simple can that has enough gas to use on up to 120 bottles…not that we are setting you a wine-drinking target!

The Private Preserve uses a mixture of non-toxic gases – carbon dioxide, nitrogen and argon to be precise for the mad scientists among you – which creates a protective layer on the wine surface to keep the evil oxidizing oxygen at bay. It’s also so simple to use: insert the extension tube into the neck bottle and off you spray. This is a great priced product for the ordinary wine drinker or for taking with you on holiday or the beach to keep your vino lasting longer. Top review tip from the Internet: use in combination with your refrigerator and you’ll have fresh, tasty wine for a week or more.

Another wine aerator system, Nutrichef’s Electric Wine model comes in at a lower price so not quite so eye-catching as the Aervana but it’s a tasty proposition when it comes to adding flavor to your tipple.

The airtight design of the Nutrichef helps to protect the bottle’s contents after opening it, making it a real multi-tasker when it comes to preserving your wine. The simple to use electric aerator pump works to improve the taste of your wine as well as reducing compounds within the bottle that can lead to oxidation. The result is a tasty glass of wine that you can enjoy on day one…and come back to repeat the experience a few days later. A well-priced and easy to use aerator and wine preservation systemthat fits all standard sized wine bottles and would look good in any kitchen. Definitely one nifty kitchen gadget you need to have.
