The well crafted Vino Valult creates a new product cagtegory..."The
Preserving Refrigerator". The VinoVault is the first product in the
world to incorporate unmatched wine preservation with multi-bottle
cooling and storage, ultimately enhancing the experience of enjoying a
good bottle of wine. Since the VinoVault can hold up to 15 bottles, it
allows wine lovers to preserve as many bottle as desired and then use
the remaining space to store unopened bottle at the optimum
temperature. Every VinoVauilt is a true two for one appliance. The
VinoVault precision cooling system uses state of the art, heat pipe
technology that provides ultra-quiet operation. To preserve an opened
bottle of wine in the VinoVault simply fill the partially consumed
bottle with Argon gas using the built in injection nozzle, and leave
the bottle upright - the lighted window proudly displays the bottle's
label. Wine oxidizes when exposed to air, causing a distinctive
sherry-like off-odor and brownish tint that is increasingly
recognizable with wine consumption experience. When wine tannins are
oxidized, hydrogen peroxide is produced which subsequently oxidizes
ethanol into acetaldehyde - the principal compound producing the
oxidized odor and masking the wine's fragrance.
Deep,
saturated ruby. Explosive bouquet of blackberry liqueur, candied cherry,
boysenberry and dark chocolate. Lush, thick and tactile, with chewy dark berry
and mocha flavors accented by cinnamon and mace. Finishes with excellent energy
and repeating spice notes, leaving a lingering impression of plum preserves. Stephen Tanzer's International
Wine Cellar, Jul/Aug 06

It's Grenache dominant (60%) which makes it so approachable, at
the barby, in the kitchen or on the table. It drinks so well on its own
or with your favourite pizza (Dad would go Italian or more recently
Indian!). The Shiraz component comes off our younger vines (27 years
old) which fleshes the wine out and gives some sweetness and depth to
back of the palate. Drink now or cellar and be surprised.
