BOSTON, Dec. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- CORAVIN, Inc.
announced today that Teammates at Maggiano's Little Italy are now
able to pour the restaurant's entire wine list by-the-glass with
the chain's nationwide adoption of the Coravin Wine Preservation
Opener. The device allows users to pour wine from bottles in any
amount without removing the cork – and protects what is left in the
bottle for weeks, months, or even years. The Maggiano's and Coravin
partnership means that restaurant guests at all of their 52
locations can now enjoy any of its nearly 60 still wines
by-the-glass.
Enjoying Italian food with wine dates back 4,000 years when the
Etruscans set their sights on winemaking. Ancient Romans would be
delighted by the diversity of the Maggiano's' 21st
century wine list. It has been carefully curated to pair with the
restaurants' made-from-scratch Italian-American cuisine, and
encompasses wine from the "old world" and the "new." Maggiano's
selections range from traditional favorites like Italian Chianti's
to Reserve Pinot Noirs from Napa
Valley, as well as a broad selection of red and white wines
at every price point.
"We are thrilled that Maggiano's is sharing our passion for
enhancing the wine experience and that our Wine Preservation Opener
is giving them the ability to expand their by-the-glass program in
such a meaningful way," said Frédéric Levy, CEO of Coravin. "Our
new partnership will give their guests the opportunity to enjoy any
of their wine selections by the glass."
Coravin continues to fuel the growth of wine-by the-glass
programs at premier restaurants around the world by allowing them
ultimate freedom to pour a broad variety of wines by the glass or
taste without waste. This enables restaurants to increase guest
satisfaction and fine wine sales.
"At Maggiano's, we have always been very focused on creating a
diverse wine list that appeals to all of our guests and the Coravin
Wine Preservation Opener allows us to serve more of our wines in
more ways," said Larry Konecny, vice
president and chief concept officer of Maggiano's. "We
believe that every visit to our restaurants should be special, and
nothing is more special than a glass of wine with a meal, whether
guests enjoy a $5 glass or a
$25 glass."
