Wikeeps
In 2012, Wikeeps was the winner of the Trophée Oenovation organized by the Technopole de Bordeaux Montesquieu and awarded for innovation in the wine industry.
This year, Wikeeps will be presenting its full range of solutions for optimizing the quality and preservation of your wines, as well as optimizing the cost of tasting them at the winery or at trade shows.
As consumption patterns have changed, and wine tourism is on the rise, tasting bottles of wine at the Estate is becoming almost compulsory. For Domaines, tasting remains the best way to sell their wines.
One problem is the cost of tasting: opening several bottles to serve just a few centilitres. It’s not uncommon for a château to throw away the equivalent of more than 10 cases of wine a year.
The problem also arises with small vintages that can’t easily be pushed to tasting.
In response to these problems, Wikeeps in Bordeaux has developed France’s only system for storing and serving wine by the glass.
It uses oenological gas capsules (a mixture of Argon and CO2) produced in partnership with the Linde group.
The Wikeeps system is light, efficient and easy to use, and is placed directly on the bottle as soon as it is opened. As a result, wine can be served and stored for up to 20 days after opening, thanks to the qualitý of the oenological gas contained in the cartridge.
Winemakers benefit from a simple, cost-effective tool that enables them to control their tasting costs while guaranteeing quality tastings of their wines to provoke purchase.
You can find the full range of products on the Wikeeps.fr website.
