Today I came across this product - Wine Skin - in one my go-to travel goods resources, Magellan's.What a clever concept! I can't tell you how many times I've precariously packed bottles of vino in my checked luggage (risky, I know). Often times, hotels will offer to bubble-wrap my liquid finds (like an excellent pinot from The Biltmore Estate), but sometimes I resort to sweatshirt or raincoat padding around a bottle... especially daring for a wine lover like myself.
So, tell me, why, why, why must these fabulous finds be disposable, created for one-time use? Has anyone out there found a reusable wine packer - one that's constructed in a similar manner but uses heftier, recyclable plastic and a zipper seal? And if there's nothing out there now... who's up for a game of enterprise?

Magellan's also has a reusable wine carrying case called BottleWise - it's padded and holds two bottles in liquid proof pouches.
No sooner did I post this did I get an e-mail detailing BottleWise. What a great idea!
Anyone who is interested can find details at www.bottlewise.com.
