Wikeeps takes part to Nantes wine event

Wikeeps is also taking part with its partner Ecotel Nantes, and is presenting its range of accessories that will enable you to make the most of your best bottles by optimizing three fundamental stages in wine tasting.

Preservation: the Wikeeps system uses carefully dosed oenological gases to prevent wine oxidation and preserve your bottle for up to 20 days after opening.

Serving: after preserving the wine, it’s time to serve it by the glass. Wikeeps integrates an elegant and ingenious glass service that adapts to all bottle formats (classic, magnum, double magnum, imperial) and will enable you to sublimate your tastings.

Temperature: the wibox 2 and wibox 4 temperature-holding display cases for 2 and 4 bottles enable wine to be served by the glass at the ideal temperature.

The Wikeeps range also enables foodservice operators to enhance the value of their wine-by-the-glass offering, combining profitability and quality.
