    We use more expensive coravin models at work and they’re great for professional and retail settings. We have 15 of us who try the wines at work and with the coravin we don’t need to all taste the wine on day one like we would with screw cap bottles, then at the end of the month all coravin bottles get divided up and we each take a couple home and the wine is still in perfect condition. However as the only serious wine drinker in my home I find the pivot perfect for home. Sometimes you can’t finish a bottle in one night or you want to treat yourself to a little tasting and try a couple bottles in one night without getting blind. I almost always finish the bottles within 2 weeks and have never had an issue with the pivot, I know people worry about the wine staring to oxygenate when you pop the cork to put the coravin seal in but the exposure to air is minimal and has no noticeable impact

    That’s what I’m trying to use ours for but we’re really not having much luck. Some wines seem to keep better than others, but I'd say 80% are aging almost as poorly as if they did not have the Corvin attached. Is there a trick to this that I'm missing? I’m putting the cork in place as fast as possible.

    The seals look good enough on the stopper that I believe you could keep it in for another glass. If you want to pour multiple times after the first glass, then I would take the system out.

    Thanks for the informative video. I think my use case won't work for this. I want to open a bottle with dinner, not knowing if we will finish it or not. I want to preserve it just for a few days before finishing it yet. I use Private Preserve inert gas which helps, but even after just a day or two the wine is not as fresh. To use this I would have to start off using it as soon as I open it. I would potentially waste the gas if we decided to drinnk the whole bottle. I'm interested in your opinion, thanks.

    Have you tasted the wine after 4 weeks? I recently bought the Pivot and I'm quite disappointed. I tried my wine the following day and it tasted like day old wine. I store my bottles in a wine fridge and followed Coravin's instructions carefully. Curious to hear other people's thoughts on this particular product.

    I’m having a similar experience. I am a Wine rep and we thought that this would be a nice tool to keep our wines fresh for maybe a week or two, but so far it’s primarily been very disappointing. The next day they taste day old. They certainly don’t stay drinkable for a week. I’m hoping I’m just doing something wrong.

    Coravin claims you can get 20 full glasses out of one canister (I can get slightly more). Depending on the quantity you purchase, they are about 6-8 USD per capsule. So 30 - 40 cents per glass.

  • @drmatthewhorkey

    The capsules are the same size. Coravin claims it’s 5 bottles (25 glasses) for the pivot. It’s allegedly because of less wastage. I’m working on a video of this very subject bc I believe you can get even more pours out of a cartridge.

    @@drmatthewhorkey thanks for the reply. Think I figured out why you can get 20 pours with the Pivot vs. 15 on the Needle version. Bot us identical capsules starting with the same PSI. When the pour they release gas and the capsule internal pressure drops. The Pivot's delivery mechanism is more efficient - larger orifice (more area) than the needle so it can deliver the appropriate amount of gas at a lower capsule pressure. If you had some way of measuring the PSI of both capsules, when "quote" used up, you will find the PIVOT capsule has a lower PSI than the needle capsule. If there was a way to move the "used" Needle capsule to the Pivot you could probably pour out another bottle.

The last two bottles were 60+ dollar bottles that I ended up pouring out half of the bottle a week later because it was so bitter. I just can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

    I did read carefully on their website today that after you open the bottle it must be stored horizontally in the refrigerator and that storing it incorrectly could affect the taste. I store them standing upright. Another thing I might have not been doing is making sure that the stopper is totally dry and the inside of the bottle is totally dry which creates a good seal. I think I’m going to buy a cheaper bottle of wine and try that out before I waste another good one:-(
