Product Description
Corkcicle Wine Chiller
Keeping wines at just the right drinking temperature is a great dilemma. Too cold and it could mask the vintner's uniquely crafted complexities. Too warm and the flavors may take a back seat to the alcohol. The answer to this perplexity? Corkcicle.
The first of its kind, Corkcicle is an innovative product designed to keep your white wines chilled and bring your room temperature reds down to a more suitable "cellar" temperature, without the need for an ice bucket. Ice buckets often make white wine too cold, masking the flavors and complexities of the wine, not to mention they are messy and bulky. With Corkcicle, wines are chilled from the inside of the bottle so you can enjoy perfectly chilled wine every time.
Simple to use, just throw Corkcicle in the freezer for 90 minutes. After pouring the first glass of chilled white, drop it in the bottle to maintain the perfect temperature. For reds, pour a taste and insert Corkcicle for twelve minutes to lower the temperature to the mid 60's. Made from BPA free plastic and non-toxic freeze gel, Corkcicle has an elegant and innovative design that keeps wine cool for a perfect glass every time.
Another perk about the Corkcicle? You can use it again and again. No need to throw it away. Even after countless uses, it keeps your whites and lighter chilled reds at a perfect drinking temperature. And it even brings those heavier room temperature reds down to a more suitable drinking temperature.
Use your Corkcicle at home, bring it to your next party or take it on-the-go. This wine chiller is perfect for your next outdoor barbeque, picnic or intimate evening at home. The Corkcicle also makes for the perfect gift for the wino in your life. Available in original cork as well as six pop inspired colors, including white, orange, pink, green, blue and yellow.

Our Story
We make things that cool. We make cool things.
Since we launched, we've heard quite a few stories on how we first got the idea for the Corkcicle. And while we wish we'd been inspired while sipping warmish wine in an icicle-rimmed Aspen chalet, that's not the case. The truth is that Ben Hewitt, Corkcicle's inventor and company founder, simply loves wine and hated that there wasn't a better solution to bothersome wine buckets.
In November 2011, Ben started tinkering in his garage, creating prototype after prototype.
Aided with the marketing expertise of his friend and business partner, Stephen Bruner, the idea quickly became a reality. More to the point, Stephen brought a high design approach to the product with the name and its icicle form to create our beloved Corkcicle.
As the manufacturing process got underway, it became clear that we needed a rainmaker to help deliver the product and get it effectively introduced to the retail world. A close friend, Eric Miller, VP of Sales at a Fortune 100 medical device company, came on board and has been making it rain Corkcicles ever since.
Together, the three have built a brand that represents true American ingenuity and captures the essence of the entrepreneurial spirit. Proving that great ideas still matter and that with hard work and great partners, anything's possible.

Do you enjoy toxic gel in your wine?by Brian Larsen (1 out of 5 stars)
October 14, 2018
Liked this product right up until the fifth use when I noticed the gel inside had a wine tint to it towards the top. Then I realized the seam where the soft plastic meets the hard plastic top was compromised and wine was getting in, meaning the toxic gel was also getting out. So cheers corkcicle! Thanks for poisoning me.
Great idea but poor quality and no return policy
by Steve W. Anderson (1 out of 5 stars)

Poor quality-the cork at the top broke in half on the first use. To add insult the item isn't eligible for return. I don't recall that being disclosed when I made the purchase. The corkcicle itself worked (i.e., it kept the wine chilled) but with the broken cork it is now very difficult to remove it from the bottle.
Stick a Corkcicle in it.

The corkcicle is an amazing addition for any wine lover. It freezes quickly and is perfect for keeping your chilled whites at the right temperature or bringing your room temp reds to the right cool zone. All it takes is a quick rinse and it is ready for the freezer and the next bottle. I see this sticking around with our other wine accessories for many years to come.

It works to keep chilled wines cool. It's nice to put into a bottle of wine while I sit on my patio, less mess and less work than a bucket of ice, and less hassle than having to go back inside for another glass. I appreciate that the lid can be removed and a glass of wine can be poured with the Corkcicle still in. You just have to remember to rinse it and put it back in your freezer so you're good to go!

This device does not work well with a room temperature bottle of wine. It just takes too long and won't chill the wine, It will cool it, but not chill it. That's why I would recommend chilling your wine first, to get maximum cooling longevity. out of the product. It doesn't keep the wine as cold as I would like, for an extended period of time, but it is better than not having anything at all. I would like to see a media inside the long end, that comes in contact with the wine,.to keep the wine colder, for a longer period of time. I don't think the media, inside the tube is water, but I would like it to have more cooling longevity. Of course as you drink the bottle down less and less of the media stays in contact with the wine.
Neat idea but...

The corkcicle is a neat idea, but we haven't put it to much use. Maybe it's just old habits, but I still prefer to keep my wine bottle in a cooler or put it back in the fridge when not drinking it. Maybe I'll find it more useful in a different situation, but for now it's just sitting in my freezer. For me, this product isn't a necessity, but it might come in handy one day.
Strange particles floating inside
by Kristen (1 out of 5 stars)
September 12, 2019
This looks much better quality in the photos. It's plastic and has ugly seams on the sides. That wasn't the dealbreaker though. The worst part was that there was some kind of strange algae(?) floating on the inside. Gross! The box also came beaten up. I had bought it as a gift but couldn't bring myself to give it to the intended recipient. Cute idea, but poorly made.
non messy way to keep wine cold

I had received a corksickle as a present. I was delighted to find it at a good price at amazon. I'm saving these two for gifts. It works really well so now when I visit friends I carry it with me for when we open the rose'.
Too big for the wine bottle when frozen.
by Mary Remington (1 out of 5 stars)

I froze my Corkcicle and when I tried to put it in the bottle, it didn't fit. It was too big for the opening. As it thawed out bottom to top, it would slip a little further into the bottle. Of course, once it thaws it defeats the purpose of the Corkcicle. Save your money and just put your wine in the fridge.
Great gift for wine lovers!

I received this as a gift and just loved it! I hate when wine sits out and gets warm on the table. The Corkcicle solves this problem. All you need to do is freeze the corkcicle and put it in your red or white wine to keep it perfectly chilled. I have never seen anything like this, so I can't compare it to anything, but say it is the perfect addition to my wine cellar!
I have since given it for many gifts and everyone loves it! My only regret is that I don't own more than one!
