Piccolo (Version 01)

Very good wine travel suitcase, works at advertised, recently used to carry 5 bottles of wine/spirits. All bottles arrived unharmed. Smooth rollability - very good quality materials. Highly recommended.

Loved the quality of this suitcase. We packed it with 5 wine bottles on the way to Germany and then brought back whiskey from Ireland. Unfortunately it did not fit the Reisling that we bought in Germany but I had brought along some different wine bags just in case. I was able to move one of the foam inserts to fit the Reisling so it was easy to check the suitcase. I was worried about the suitcase being too heavy but it was well under the max weight. Great construction, easy to maneuver!

Great suitcase and arrived fast

I filled one side with wine bottles and the other with my jammies, and took the case on a trip that involved four airplane flights in total. The gorillas in the baggage area did their best but were unable to break the bottles, so I would call this a successful experiment. The case performed exactly as I hoped it would. One minorly troubling thing is the amount of dings and scuffs that appear from only a single trip. The handle mounts are plastic and already show wear, but the damage appears to be only cosmetic -- the mounts are still solid and firmly attached. Understand that the manufacturer must strike a balance between durable construction and lightweight material, so expect the bag to look very well-traveled even after just one trip. Personally, I don't care about appearance. I bought the case for function, not form, and thus far it has functioned perfectly. Protip: While the case has won my confidence and I do not expect any bottles to break during my travels, one should always prepare for the worst. I recommend buying extra-large Ziploc bags (you can easily get ones that are as large as this case) and packing your clothing inside them. The bottle compartment is separated from the clothing compartment by two zippered flaps and two foam inserts, which provide cushioning against shock but are not a liquid barrier. Should the gorillas manage to break a bottle, your clothes are going to get wine-soaked.

Transporting wine.

It’s a beautiful piece of luggage, but I visit champagne country when I go to France and champagne bottles don’t fit very well. Luckily I tried the bottles to check the fit before going and decided to return the luggage as it’s not really made to transport champagne bottles.

We've used the luggage on two trips now. It meant we could bring wine to friends. We plan to use it to bring wine back from Europe. 5 seems like the right number of bottles for us to bring. Like that there is room for other items we need to take along too.

This product is amazing! We tried it out on a recent flight and it did not disappoint.
