The Pinocchio Barriqu carafe design takes inspiration from the aged barrels that are used in the wine-making process. The bottles themselves are made out of wood to allow consumers to create their own wine in the comfort of their own home. The specially selected wood ferments the liquid inside the bottle transforming the contents into wine in under two weeks.
Unlike a traditional glass bottle, the Pinocchio Barrique is designed to used to ferment the wine rather than simply package it. The bottle is made from exclusive oak containing a specific level of humidity that helps to ferment the liquid inside into wine. The wooden bottle can be filled with liquid containing an alcohol level of 12% or more and the oak will turn the substance into wine in 15 days.
