Wine by-the-glass service system Coravin has announced that more than 50 venues in eight countries will participate in next month's edition of its World Wine Tour.
Launched last year with 15 venues in four countries, the Coravin World Wine Tour is a campaign which offers rare or unusual wines by-the-glass, preserved under Coravin.
The forthcoming World Wine Tour, taking place from 1 to 31 May, will incorporate restaurants in the UK, US, Australia, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany.
“I am absolutely delighted that on-premise venues around the world are sharing in my mission to open up the world of wine," commented Coravin founder Greg Lambrecht. “For over a decade now, Coravin has helped bars and restaurants create inspirational by-the-glass lists. This great momentum and growth of the Coravin World Wine Tour is testament to the enthusiasm from both the trade and consumers for more access to interesting and exclusive wines for guests to enjoy by-the-glass."
Among the wines announced in the lineup (subject to availability) are the likes of NV Ruinart Singulier Champagne, 2004 López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Blanco Gran Reserva and 2016 Roagna Barbaresco.
