Verre de Vin
Creating a wine list is always an exciting part of creating menus in restaurants, albeit a difficult task, but as all tricky jobs, someone has to do it! Let me set the daunting scene: the restaurateur is faced with the hard task of having to sample and taste many different wines, from different regions, grape varieties and price points. Doing it all in one sitting can become a rather testing time, for the palate and for the head! All worth it of course for the pleasure of being able to present a delicious, varied and exciting wine list to offer to our friends and customers when they join us for a meal, or even a drink.
After all the hard work of selecting wines is finished, it is a shame to then reduce people’s choices by the glass, which often means some more unusual and dare I say exciting wines might end up being overlooked. As a restaurant, we wanted to offer that same variety and choice that we would like as customers. This can be tricky though in the context of a restaurant, as how can you keep so many opened wines fresh? As wine lovers, there’s nothing worse than ordering a lovely glass of wine, only to be met with a wine that has passed its best. Luckily, there are now very effective ways for bars and restaurants to keep their wines fresh and inviting.
As many of you will have noticed, as part of our recent refurbishment and re-launch we had a complete re-haul of our bar, turning it into a very sleek, modern and elegant space, fitted with all the latest drinks technology. Part of that is our brand new Verre de Vin by Bermar, a sleek and efficient new system that keeps opened wine fresh for up to 3 weeks. As Victor would say: Eccellente! This has now given us the chance, as a restaurant, to offer what all guests would like: all the choice they want when it comes to a glass of wine. And since our re-launch in January, this is exactly what we have been doing – offering all of our wines – almost 50 – by the glass and by the bottle, from our Victor & Carina Contini Prosecco to our beautiful Barolo Massolino, and all our other wonderful wines in between.

The process is very simple, but concentrate, as here comes the science bit: as soon as you open a bottle, the wine gets into contact with air, which starts a process called oxidation. This is what makes the flavour and the colour of the wine to change, eventually turning it into vinegar. In the case of still wines, our Compact Verre de Vin machine creates a controlled and gentle vacuum in the bottle, by sucking out the air in it in a matter of seconds. This drastically reduces the amount of air with which the wine comes into contact and slows down the oxidation process. In the case of sparkling wines, on top the worry of oxidation, we also need to think about the wine losing its sparkle. For this, Bermar’s Verre de Vin gently fills the bottle of sparkling wine with an infusion of carbon dioxide, which keeps the sparkle in the wine and at the same time keeps the wine safe from oxidizing.
So when coming in to order a glass of wine or indeed a beautiful glass of Bellavista Franciacorta, you can safely trust that the wine will be as delicious as the winemaker intended it to be.
Salute!
How long does wine last for once it has been opened?
It depends on the style, varietal and how well the wine is stored.
Sparkling wines can last for 1-3 days if kept refrigerated with the use of a stopper.
White wines can last from 3-7 days if kept refrigerated (depending on what type of wine it is), with the use of a stopper or cork.
Red wine can last for 3-5 days if kept in cool dark place with the use of a stopper or cork.
Fortified wines can last for up to 21 days if kept in a cool dark place with the use of a stopper or cork.
Using a wine preservation system increases the life of an open bottle of wine or sparkling by a considerable amount of time with all types listed above lasting for up to 21 days with a Le Verre de Vin preservation system.
The team at Bermar have been supplying the world’s leading still and sparkling wine preservation systems, Le Verre de Vin, for over 25 years.
Why does wine go bad once opened?
There are two main reasons as why wine goes bad once opened. Firstly, acetic acid bacteria consumes the alcohol in wine and metabolises it into acetic acid and acetaldehyde. This is what causes the wine to have a sharp, vinegar-like smell. Secondly, the alcohol can oxidise, causing a nutty, bruised fruit taste, which robs the wine of fresh and fruity flavours. Both of these causes are chemical reactions, and the lower the temperature a wine is stored, the more slowly these will happen.
All wine begins to oxidise as soon as it is opened. There are a lot of red wines and a smaller amount of white wines that benefit from a short amount of breathing time but left in an open bottle the wine will rapidly begin to deteriorate as the air oxidises the wine.
How does a wine preservation system work?
The Le Verre de Vin technology can effectively remove the oxygen to a precisely controlled level and preserve the wine without any risk to its subtle structure. Still wines can take from 2 – 5 seconds during which time a precisely controlled vacuum is created within the bottle.
Sparkling wine or Champagne preservation have to address two key areas which are the loss of sparkle and oxidation. Preventing the release of the naturally occurring CO2 is key to ensuring that the fizz stays locked in the wine and any issue of oxidation is eliminated.
What are the key features of the Le Verre de Vin systems?
An unlimited amount of still, and sparkling wines can be preserved for up to 21 days after opening.
