Introducing the Coravin Guide
Coravin, Inc. has taken an exciting step for wine enthusiasts by launching The Coravin Guide, the very first guide dedicated to wine by-the-glass menus globally. This innovative digital platform is designed to showcase exceptional selections available in various venues such as restaurants, bars, hotels, and private clubs. The guide emphasizes the growing trend of enjoying wine by-the-glass, enhancing accessibility and exploration for wine lovers everywhere.
A New Way to Experience Wine
The Coravin Guide kicks off its coverage in the U.S. with a focus on California, signaling a bright future of expansion into additional cities. The featured venues are recognized through a unique tiering system, which rates them based on the selection of wines available by-the-glass. This tiering reflects not just quantity but also the quality and thoughtfulness in the selections presented to the consumers.
Understanding the Tiering System
The Coravin Guide employs a bespoke classification to make it easy for wine enthusiasts to find venues based on their selection size:
- One Glass: 20 to 40 wines by-the-glass
- Two Glasses: 41 to 60 wines by-the-glass
- Three Glasses: Over 60 wines by-the-glass
- Greg's Hidden Gems: Notable small finds that inspire
Philosophy Behind the Guide
According to Greg Lambrecht, the founder and inventor of Coravin, wine by-the-glass is about discovery and not limitation. He emphasizes that The Coravin Guide allows wine lovers the freedom to explore venues that embody the same philosophy of tasting and savoring wine a glass at a time. Coravin’s CEO, Dave Krupinski, echoes this sentiment, noting how consumer patterns are gravitating towards 'drinking less but better,' leading to an increased interest in wine exploration.

This openness encourages a wider variety of places to share their wine offerings, making it a valuable resource for patrons looking for the best by-the-glass experiences.
