Practical: the Blond-Bags from Oleu-Segel for 3, 5 and 10 litre capacity
Born on board a regatta boat, this item is one thing above all: practical. Portable, stable, can be hung up and even insulated if required

PVC-coated on the inside and made of canvas on the outside, the bag is waiting to be filled with a wineskin. The cardboard box can then be disposed of. Even purist gourmets now have to recognise that this type of packaging does more good than harm to the wine. No cork, protection from UV radiation and the exclusion of oxygen guarantee long-lasting wine enjoyment, according to the manufacturer.

But to avoid having the unattractive aluminium bag in the cockpit, the owners of Oleu-Segel thought: why not invent something made of canvas around it? Refined with a few ideas, the Blond-Bag was born - named after the hair colour of the initiators. The details include a viewing window into which a label can be inserted, the rubber-reinforced opening for the dispensing tap, neoprene insulation as an extra and a hanging device for the 10-litre bag.

The item, which costs from 39 euros, can be purchased via the online shop at www.blond-bag.de.
