Rapid Cooling for Wine Bottles

Serving wines at the ideal temperature without a traditional cellar
Pura Vida, a restaurant located in La Barra, Punta del Este, with stunning ocean views, faced the challenge of keeping its wines chilled year-round, leading to high energy consumption, especially during the off-season. Additionally, the traditional method lacked the flexibility to cater to customers' preferred serving temperatures.The installation of a Wine machine transformed their service by enabling instant wine cooling, significantly reducing energy consumption. The machine functions as an unlimited cellar, not only keeping wines at the perfect temperature but also giving customers the option to choose both the wine and the ideal temperature for their enjoyment. Using the universal cork, they can also re-chill previously opened wines, ensuring every glass is served at the perfect temperature.
