Silver Oak, Etude Wineries Pilot Bottle Reuse in Tasting Rooms

Revino Inc. said it signed its first contract with two California wineries to pilot initiatives to reduce carbon waste by reusing their bottles up to 50 times.

They will test practical ways to extend the lifecycle of the glass bottles they already have by improving logistics around collection, cleaning, and reuse.

The initial phase included a half-pallet of empty bottles collected from the tasting rooms, enabling the wineries to evaluate reductions in waste and carbon emissions, internal collection operations, and consumer messaging, as well as the cost efficiencies of a closed-loop reuse model.

“Partnering with legacy brands like Silver Oak and Etude to explore the possibilities of reuse is an exciting step forward for Revino,” said Adam Rack, COO and Cofounder of Revino. “This pilot allows us to open the door to new applications for reuse while deepening our presence in California. Both wineries hold a strong commitment to sustainability, making them ideal partners as we work together to demonstrate how closed-loop systems can reduce waste, lower emissions, and shape the future of wine packaging in California and across the industry.”

These pilots build on Revino’s broader mission to establish a durable, circular system for wine packaging that prioritizes interoperability and industry-wide reuse standards over recycling.
