Vinglacé makes Champagne totally chill When bringing bubbly on board, one must have the right equipment to keep it properly chilled—something that may be difficult in a cramped galley or flybridge wet bar. The Vinglacé portable bottle insulator can keep any wine, Champagne, or sparkling water chilled for hours without the need for refrigeration. Made of stainless steel, the vessel is double-walled and vacuum insulated to protect pre-chilled beverages from warm salty air. The adjustable top screws up or down to fit most bottle sizes and keeps a tight seal. Lightweight and easy to carry, the chiller allows you to keep cold drinks on any deck to keep the party going. Available in a choice of a dozen tasteful colors, $89.95 // vinglace.com.
