The average wine loving household wastes 2 glasses per week of wine from a bottle. Maivino presented the task of giving the bag wine experience a completely new perception. Design a product to dispense a 1.5L or 3L bag of wine. A dispenser that elevates the boxed wine experience, reaping the ecological and function benefits of this type of packaging, yet could easily live in anyones home bar.
