The next time you want to open a bottle of wine, don’t. As soon as you pull the cork, oxygen enters the bottle and starts to disturb the delicate
chemistry that gives wine its bouquet and character. Instead, use a Pungo to dispense your wine through the cork! Simply insert the needle, tip t
he bottle to pour, and pull the trigger. Argon from a high-capacity cartridge will enter the bottle forcing wine to flow from the spout. The remaining
wine will stay perfectly preserved because it is never exposed to oxygen. This allows your wine to stay as fresh as the day you didn’t open it, for w
eeks and even months. Plus: Icon, Art of the Wine Label. The wine label is a powerful icon of modern civilization. It is a precious object of art th
at symbolizes and disseminates the cultural and spiritual values of the land where wine is grown. This book is a collection of the most important wor
ks. Beginning with a short treatise on some of the philosophical aspects of modern iconography, it documents 100 wine labels and bottle designs in lif
e size with complete descriptions of the genesis and thought behind each design concept.
