CoravinTM Screw Caps Frequently Asked Questions

How long will wine last using a Coravin Screw Cap?

When Screw Caps are used correctly and wine is stored properly, Coravin Screw Caps protect wine from oxidation for up to three months.

What happens if I don’t put the Coravin Screw Cap on immediately after opening the bottle and before pouring?
Too much oxygen will be introduced into the bottle and oxidation will begin to occur more quickly than if the Coravin Screw Cap was immediately put on after opening. This will affect the life of the wine, meaning it will not last for 3 months.

What happens if I pour a glass of wine before I put the Coravin Screw Cap on the bottle?

More oxygen will be introduced into the bottle and oxidation will begin to occur more quickly than if the Coravin Screw Cap was immediately put on after opening. This will affect the life of the wine, meaning it may not last for 3 months.

How do I know which size of Coravin Screw Cap to use with my wine bottle?

Unscrew the Screw Cap. DO NOT POUR THE WINE. Immediately (within a few seconds) screw on the Coravin Screw Cap. Then use the Coravin System like you would when there is a natural cork in the bottle.

Are there different sizes of Coravin Screw Caps available?

Yes. Two sizes are available. Standard fits ~80% of wines under Screw Cap and Large fits ~20% of wines.

How do I know which size of Coravin Screw Cap to use with my wine bottle?

Try the Standard size first. If it doesn’t screw on tightly, immediately try the Large size.

Will the wine be affected adversely if I have to take extra time to swap out the caps by size?

As long as you manage the switch quickly (within a few seconds) it should not matter.

What kinds of testing has Coravin done to prove the Coravin Screw Cap works?

Coravin has conducted blind taste tests with wine experts on wines under Screw Caps at 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months. No difference could be detected by the tasters between the wines using Coravin Screw Caps and new, unopened wines.

Can I remove the Coravin Screw Cap after usage before the bottle is empty?

Yes, if you would like to drink all the wine remaining in the bottle, you may remove the Coravin Screw Cap before the bottle is empty and pour from the bottle. However, the Screw Cap will only preserve wine if it is screwed on tightly and not removed from the bottle.

Can the Coravin Screw Cap be reused?

Yes. It can be punctured up to 50 times (both Standard and Large). Based on an average of 5 oz/150ml glass each time, the cap should last for the approximately 10 bottles.

How do I know when to replace the Coravin Screw Cap?

After approximately 50 punctures, the inside liner of the Screw Cap will show many holes so it should then be replaced.

How do I clean the Coravin Screw Cap?

Simply run the Coravin Screw Cap under clean water. Do not put in the dishwasher or use detergents or chemicals as they will affect the taste of your wine. Pat the cap dry with a clean cloth.

Do Coravin Screw Caps work with wine bottles that use synthetic corks?

No. There are no screw threads on bottles under synthetic corks.

Do Coravin Screw Caps work with champagne bottles?

No. The Coravin System does not work with champagne. Coravin Screw Caps also do not work with champagne.

Why won’t using a Coravin System with Coravin Screw Caps on a wine bottle keep a wine as long as a wine bottle with a real cork?
With Screw Cap wines, the bottle is open for a very short period of time before the Coravin Screw Cap is installed. During this short time, the small area of wine at the top of the bottle is exposed to the air. This small exposure can affect wines after several months. Wines with natural corks are accessed without ever opening the bottle, ensuring they stay fresh for month or years to come, when using the Coravin System.

Are Coravin Screw Caps recyclable?

Yes, by municipality. The Screw Caps are made of ABS plastic.
