🍷 Effortless Wine Opening with Ah-So Corkscrew: Two-Prong Cork Puller and Bottle Opener Review

I used another ah so before and I tried this. t is correct, so the scratch occurs.

I lost my last Ah-So and even destroyed a 30 year old cork with a double helix corkscrew. Now I'm ready for my next old crumbly cork! This is the only puller that can be used in such circumstances, especially when a slight leak is causing the cork to stick to the neck of the bottle.

I run a winery tasting room in Northern California and IF you know how to use a two prong opener properly this is for you. Worked for me every time without bending or deforming.
