Kuvée is trying to reinvent wine with a Wi-Fi bottle

The Kuvée Bottle is, without question, one of the most ridiculous Internet of Things devices I’ve ever seen. It’s a Wi-Fi connected wine bottle with a touchscreen that needs to be constantly recharged and is only compatible with proprietary wine cartridges. In exchange for this hassle, it promises to keep wine fresh for up to 30 days. It’s exactly the kind of absurd product the Internet of Things is deservedly mocked for, and yet I love it for that very reason.
