THE ÜLLO STORY
Üllo is a Chicago-based company that believes wine is best enjoyed the way the winemaker intended – free from the sulfite preservatives added during production. Üllo’s Wine Purifier is a first-of-its-kind product that gives consumers the option to remove sulfites, for a healthier, more natural way to enjoy wine. Üllo was founded by American chemist and inventor, James Kornacki, Ph.D., in 2015 and today serves hundreds of thousands of wine lovers worldwide.
Derived from the alchemy symbol for purify, Üllo means pure wine and is pronounced “oo-low.”
SIMPLE + PURE
We believe wine is best in its natural state, without the artificial sulfites that were added as a preservative.
NECESSITY = INVENTION
My aunt is sulfite sensitive and couldn’t enjoy wine at our family gatherings. When I read that others had similar reactions, I felt the need to create a solution, and with my background and education in chemistry, I had the knowledge to do so.
