  • Publication number: 20170297885
    Abstract: A dispense head is removably joined to a bottle, such as a wine bottle, by having a hollow cylinder extend into the bottle and on one end sealed to a neck of the bottle with gasket means for sealing the bottle in a gas tight manner and supporting the bottle, allowing the bottle to hang from the dispense head. In one embodiment a set of annular gaskets of different diameters may be provided for bottles of different neck sizes.

  • Patent number: 9751743
    Abstract: A wine dispensing device including a housing holding a gas cylinder. A stem from the gas cylinder extends to the front of the housing and provides gas to a dispense head mounted on a wine bottle. An arm attached to a routing mechanism at the top of the housing allow manipulation of a router on the dispense head. Manipulation by the routing mechanism in a first action purges the gas within the bottle and replaces it with an inert gas. Manipulation by the routing mechanism in a second action dispenses liquid from the bottle.

  • Publication number: 20150344282
    Abstract: A fluid dispense head is removably joined to a bottle, such as a wine bottle, or similar container, by having a hollow cylinder extend into the bottle and on one end sealed to a neck of the bottle with an annular gasket and on an opposite end joined to the dispense head. A nut on opposite end of the hollow cylinder limits entry of the cylinder into the bottle. When the nut is turned relative to the cylinder, the gasket seal is broken and the dispense head can be removed from the bottle. A set of annular gaskets of different diameters may be provided for bottles of different neck sizes.

  • Publication number: 20150336784
    Abstract: A system and method for wine blending using a wine dispensing system of the type that has a pour spout. Wine is dispensed through each of a plurality of pour spouts from a each of a plurality of component wine sources, such as bottles or kegs of wine. From each dispense head the wine flows into a hose joined to a mixing manifold. The mixed wine then flows to an air excluded container, from which it may then be bottled. A user specifies a recipe, which dictates the proportion of each component wine in a blend.
