The Durand Vintage Cork Opener is the ultimate tool for safely opening older and collectible wines. Specially engineered for fragile corks, the Durand combines the power of a traditional corkscrew with the gentle grip of a two-pronged Ah-So opener, allowing aged corks to be removed cleanly and intact.
For serious wine collectors and sommeliers, opening mature bottles can be risky - corks often become brittle after decades of cellaring. The Durand stabilizes the cork from both the center and the sides, dramatically reducing the chance of cork breakage or crumbling into the wine.
Trusted by wine professionals around the world, this patented two-part opener is widely regarded as the best solution for opening vintage Bordeaux, Burgundy, and other aged wines without compromising the bottle’s integrity.
Presented in an elegant protective case, the Durand also makes an exceptional gift for collectors, sommeliers, and anyone who regularly enjoys mature wines.
