Wine Enthusiast's Rendezvous Wine Roll

Portable Party

Enjoying a glass of wine on a hike or picnic does not need to be a hassle. With the lightweight and practical Rendezvous Wine Roll, you can lug your wine gear just about anywhere. The attractively designed roll is made from neoprene, a waterproof, stain-resistant and insulating material. Since the fabric is also flexible, it can be stored conveniently in a suitcase.

Inside are two zippered pockets, one for a standard-sized 750 ml bottle of wine and the other for two six-and-a-half inch tall glasses. Several additional pouches will safely store a corkscrew and other small wine accessories. When the roll is wrapped up, a pair of straps snaps together to secure the package, which is equipped with a handle and a removable (and adjustable) shoulder strap. Although it isn’t thick enough to keep a bottle ice-cold on a hot day or to prevent shattering its contents if dropped, the Rendezvous Wine Roll is better than throwing loose items into a backpack, and it is considerably less bulky than comparable carriers.
