It would be, honestly speaking, a little bit out of class. However, for the sake of the environment, I welcome this idea…

Right now we recycle all of our wine bottles. It would sure be fun to re-use, though. Then you can truly surprise your guests when opening a bottle of some cheap red, let’s say, that turns out to be fine Burgundy, or perhaps even the reverse: startle and annoy your wine-snobbish friends and family with a re-used bottle of something completely fabo that contains merely $4 juice!

@Robin C – I don’t understand your comment.

Should only plonk be expected to be innovative with regards to green initiatives?
Do all the “Good” wines get a pass on that requirement?
And how does bulk wine get better when you attract someone who knows about marketing? I’ve always heard that quality wine is made in the vineyard, not in the winery (or in this case not in the marketing plan)…

Kind Wines gets their wine from a 3rd party usually a vineyard with excess wines, a la Cameron Hughes. Try attracting Sine Qua Non to the project or Randall Grahm – someone who would know how to market it. I’m not going to drink poor wines to save the earth, I’m sorry.

We cannot get rid of our empties no one wants them not even for recycling.

A good idea–and another step on the way to having wine dispensers in grocery stores?
