Why Argon Is the Ultimate Wine Preserver
Argon is a noble, inert gas. It’s tasteless, odorless, and non-reactive. Because it’s heavier than air, argon sits on the wine’s surface and forms a protective layer that prevents oxidation without changing aroma or flavor.
Coravin wine-by-the-glass systems are precision tools that create an inert argon blanket over the remaining wine. That blanket blocks oxygen, which is wine conservation’s biggest enemy. In short: you pour, enjoy, and the bottle stays as fresh as the first glass over time.
It is the top choice if you want to preserve the true character, aroma and taste of your most precious bottles. This is why professional argon wine preserver systems are trusted by sommeliers and wine pros.
Coravin Pure Argon Capsules: What Are they?
Coravin Pure Capsules are prefilled steel capsules of ultra-pure argon gas made specifically for Coravin systems. They pressurize the bottle as you pour and then blanket the remaining wine to prevent oxidation.
These capsules power Timeless and Pivot systems and are engineered to meet food-safety and performance standards. On the other hand, Coravin Sparkling solutions use CO₂ and a different method to preserve bubbles, so argon capsules are not used for Sparkling.
