The VinniBag: A Case for Overprotective Wine Lovers

Everyone is familiar with those giant Greek vases that were used for centuries to move olive oil and wine around to the ports of the Mediterranean Sea. We used to think that was a pretty good packaging solution—or at least as good as our preferred method of putting the bottle in the trunk for the duration of the car ride, but apparently we were wrong. It turns out that "traveling with wine, olive oil or just regular toiletries can be awkward at best, disastrous at worst." The reason we know that is because the makers of the VinniBag told us so.

The VinniBag is an empty bag, inside of which you place a bottle of liquids. Once the bottle has been so placed, the bag is sealed and inflated, thus creating a cushion of air around said bottle. The practical upshot of which is that the bottle is protected from the environment and the environment is protected from the bottle contents. Modern wine transportation technology for the modern age.
