Or untapped market.
As a single guy I don't buy wine at all because I won't finish it in time - not because I wouldn't enjoy a glass every few nights.
Though I can't see the expense of such an accessory being worth it to someone who doesn't need to show off. It is possible to seal and cool it for pennies - its just 'ugly'.
- krapht 11y agoThere is such a thing as single-serving wine, and it's a growing market.
- Normal_gaussian 11y agoInteresting. Presumably it is at an heavily increased cost though? I would imagine this gives reasonable access to ranges of high quality.
- hawski 11y agoIn Poland and Germany there are small bottles of wine. They don't have them in USA?
- Normal_gaussian 11y agoI wouldn't know. I'm British
- pyoung 11y agoSeems like a low tech solution to your problem is boxed wine. Trader Joe's sells some good ones for ~$12 (and they hold the equivalent of 4 bottles of wine). http://www.traderjoes.com/fearless-flyer/article/2762 http://www.traderjoes.com/fearless-flyer/article/2762
- Normal_gaussian 11y agoOh its not a problem. I just drink teas and whisky instead. Would boxed wine really be a solution? The problem is of letting wine go to waste - something I don't really care about for cheap wine. If I am going to drink wine recreationally (not just to get drunk) I want to explore the full range - which is not available boxed.
- pyoung 11y agoFair point. I am more into beer, so waste isn't as much of an issue (unless it's a bomber of really high ABV stuff, in which case I just wait for the weekend and/or when I am with someone to share). But I have found the TJ's boxed stuff to be pretty good and it successfully fills the 'glass of wine with dinner' need for me. I'd say stick with Whiskey!
