Coravin × Tusk
Holiday 2026 · Limited edition
PROTECTING THE WATERS THAT CARRIED WINE TO NEW SHORES
For millennia, the ocean carried wine to distant shores, introducing new grapes, new styles and new ways to enjoy them. Now it's our turn to give something back. With every Timeless Six+ Ocean Blue Limited Edition sold across our global sites, Coravin supports Tusk and its local partner Oceans Without Borders in restoring the coral reefs of Mnemba Island, off the coast of Tanzania.
The partnership
A LIMITED EDITION THAT SUPPORTS TUSK
Ocean Blue takes its deep finish from the sea. A portion of proceeds from every system sold on Coravin's global websites goes to Tusk, the African conservation charity, funding a locally led reef restoration project in the Mnemba Island Marine Conservation Area, Zanzibar.
Over the next 12 months, that support helps install 1,000 reef stars planted with young coral in areas hit hardest by bleaching, and creates new opportunities for local women to train as marine rangers.

MNEMBA ISLAND, ZANZIBAR
ONE OF EAST AFRICA'S MOST IMPORTANT REEFS
The coral reefs surrounding Mnemba Island support exceptional biodiversity, local livelihoods and Zanzibar's tourism economy.
After the severe 2024 coral bleaching event, triggered by ocean warming, Tusk's local partner Oceans Without Borders expanded its reef restoration programme to speed up recovery through innovative techniques, community leadership and science-based conservation.
THE RESTORATION
How the Reef Comes Back
Reef Stars
Star-shaped frames are fixed to the seabed to stabilise degraded reef, and young coral colonies are attached to them, giving the reef a structure to grow back on.
The Coral Nursery
A new land-based nursery at the Wild Impact Blue Hub, Matemwe Secondary School, provides a climate-resilient source of corals and inspires the next generation of ocean stewards.
Women Restoring Reefs
Two dedicated female marine rangers lead reef star fabrication, coral restoration, monitoring and community engagement, opening pathways into marine conservation careers.
Long before Coravin, the ocean carried wine to new shores, introducing people to grape varieties and styles they had never encountered. This precious ocean environment is under huge pressure. We are therefore very proud to support Tusk in rebuilding 1,000 sqm of coral reef.
