In our latest podcast, host and Master Sommelier Chris Tanghe connects with Greg Lambrecht, the founder of Coravin, to discuss how the Coravin came to be, the science behind it, and how to maximize its efficiency. Greg has a background in medical device design and developed the Coravin prototype while drinking solo when expecting his first child. He wanted to reduce waste by having a glass of wine from any bottle without allowing oxygen ingress. Initially intended for consumers, the Coravin has greatly impacted the wine industry by expanding the possibilities of what a by-the-glass program can be at restaurants and wine bars across the world, with some serving hundreds of wines by the ounce or glass.
