Kuvee smart wine bottle keeps wine fresh for 30 days

Wine drinkers who lack the commitment to finish the whole bottle will soon have a digital solution, as the Internet of Things attempts to wirelessly-connect yet another part of our lives. Kuvée is hoping to give the wine bottle some smarts, with a WiFi-enabled sleeve that brings Keurig-style convenience to casual drinking – albeit at a price.

Kuvée’s target audience is the indecisive or uncommitted: people who might want to switch between different types of wine rather than finish a whole bottle in one sitting, or who may only thirst for one or two glasses at a time.

Metal canisters of wine slot into an oversized “bottle” with a touchscreen on the front. Each canister lasts for up to 30 days, using a special one-way valve to allow the wine out without air getting in.

The display allows information about the specific wine to be shown, including food pairings and information about the vineyard it came from, and eventually you’ll be able to reorder directly from the bottle.
