Unica Start 2
The compact option.
Perfect for a kitchen benchtop or a drinks cabinet. Keeps two wines open and fresh at all times. Pour a white and a red, or two wines you're working through at different paces. Self-install, no plumbing required.
Open your best bottles. Without committing to finishing them tonight.
Some bottles are too good to open unless the moment is right – and then you're committed. Enomatic changes that. Argon gas preservation keeps open wine fresh for weeks, so you can pour a glass from a great bottle on a Tuesday night and have another on the weekend. No waste, no pressure, no compromise. Just your wine, on your terms.
Enomatic for home. Designed for serious wine lovers.
The Unica Start range is perfect for residential use: no plumbing, no professional installation, no software to learn. It can sit on a benchtop or in cabinetry, holds two, four, or eight bottles at once, and serves every one of them perfectly – temperature-controlled, calibrated to your preferred pour, preserved from the moment you load them in.
Design your configuration
Three sizes. All using the same argon preservation technology. The only difference is how many bottles you want open at once.
Unica Start 4
Room for a proper selection.
Two whites, two reds – or all four at one temperature.
The right machine if you entertain regularly or like having variety without planning what you'll open in advance.
Unica Start 8
For the serious collection.
For a dedicated space where choice is the point. Eight wines open, preserved, temperature-controlled, and ready to pour. The machine that earns its own room.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it need professional installation?
No. The Unica Start is designed for self-installation – unbox it, connect the argon gas, load your bottles, and it's ready to use. If you're integrating it into a built-in space or cabinetry, your installer or joiner will need the technical specs, but there's no tradesperson required to get it running.
We do offer additional installation and training packages, which we can quote you on directly.
How long does it keep wine fresh?
21-30 days, depending on the wine. The argon gas creates a protective blanket over the wine once the bottle is opened, preventing oxidation. In practice, most wines keep beautifully well for at least three weeks.
Does it need plumbing?
No. There's no water connection required. The only things it needs is a standard power point and an argon gas canister, which we will talk you through depending on your set-up.
Can I use any wine?
Yes – any still 750ml bottle works with the Unica Start. Beyond wine, you can also use the machine for spirits, pre-batched cocktails, olive oil, or sake. Whatever you want to preserve and pour with precision.
How quiet is it?
Very. The compressor runs occasionally to maintain temperature, but the noise is minimal – comparable to a bar fridge. In a kitchen or wine room, you'll barely notice it.
What gas does it use, and how often do I need to replace it?
The machine uses high-purity argon, which is food-safe and completely inert. A canister lasts approximately a year under regular home use, and replacement canisters are inexpensive and easy to source through Supagas or BOC. We'll help make sure you've got the right set-up.
Can I get it serviced if something goes wrong?
Yes. Wine Pouring Systems provides direct support – you're talking to the people who know these machines, not a call centre. Most issues are minor and can be resolved remotely. For anything more involved, we'll work it out directly with you.
What's the warranty?
We have a three-year warranty. Learn more about warranty and support here.
