The Durand wine cork removal device - Preserve delicate aged corks seamlessly. Review

I bought this because I've been buying a lot of old wines lately. Older wines tend to have brittle corks, and the traditional corkscrew seals every bottle I open. Wine Catfish recommended Durand to me and it works great every time. This is the best tool for opening complex wine bottles and can be used as an everyday corkscrew. The price is worth saving a nice bottle of wine.

This product is overpriced for what you get. It's essentially a combination of a corkscrew like ahh so and a plain corkscrew. You can buy both products of this quality level for less than $40. The uniqueness of this product is that it combines these two qualities, which is useful when you're pulling old corks, such as. B. old port wines or Bordeaux wines. (I mean from 15 years). If you open a lot of wines of this type, this is a useful item. But the price doesn't match the product.

I was a bit nervous about buying this because of the price but now I'm glad I invested in this device. I first tried it on a 25-year-old red wine bottle from my cellar, which I knew from experience was almost guaranteed to break the cork with a standard corkscrew. This thing worked like a charm and was very simple. No more worries about broken corks and straining my old wines.

Durand is a great opener that incorporates the traditional waiter's move and oh so. I only use it on old bottles because it takes some effort to use, but I've never found myself failing to pop the cork and almost every time I use it, it is First time using a traditional opener and I'm starting to feel like the cork is falling separately. It worked perfectly in all cases. So how precious is it to avoid dropping half or part of the cork into your beautiful 1982 Bordeaux bottle? Priceless!
