This is a very interesting point, I tried the wine bladder thing, and there
was something missing for my wife and I.

It seems the ritual of opening the bottle and pouring turned out to be
almost as important as drinking the wine itself, it may seem silly but it
just turned out that way. So now we pack and protect a needless amount of
glass in order to provide us with some measure of "closure" on a good day,
but there's just something about popping a cork on a big rock by the side
of a river.
