Yeti is best known for its high-performancecoolersand insulatedwater bottles, but in recent years, it has branched out intoall kinds of tableware, including the Rambler Wine Chiller. I’ve found it requires no pre-chilling or additional ice to keep a bottle of white or rosé (up to one liter in size) drinkably cool for hours on end. It’s simply ready to go whenever I am and is a much more elegant solution than the large, drippy ice bucket it replaced.

At 4.3 inches wide and a hair under two pounds when empty, the Rambler is less than half the weight of a comparablemarble chiller— perfect for a picnic in the park. And unlike anice-pack-based sleeve, I can place it directly onto a table without worrying about condensation ruining the wood or tablecloth beneath. I also appreciate the removable silicone pad at the bottom of the interior, which prevents the terrible scraping sounds that can be caused by glass rubbing against metal. This combination of always ready performance and sleek design has earned the Rambler a permanent spot on our table during white wine and rosé season (which is every season in my household).

I often struggle with the assertive branding of many Yeti products, so I appreciate the Rambler is available in a brushed stainless-steel finish with an unpainted logo. It easily blends into any tablescape, inside or outdoors. If you prefer a more vibrant look, it comes in fun colors as well — some of which can be engraved with a customized message and graphic for no additional charge when ordered directly through Yeti.
