The Durand Wine Opener

The Durand is the definitive tool for opening old and fragile corks — trusted by sommeliers, auction houses, and collectors worldwide. Invented for mature wines whose corks can crumble or break with a standard corkscrew, it combines a helix worm with Ah-So-style prongs: the worm anchors the cork while the prongs grip it against the bottle neck, allowing even decades-old corks to be removed whole and intact.

If you collect mature Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rioja, or vintage Champagne, The Durand is essential equipment — the difference between a perfect service and a cork disaster on an irreplaceable bottle. It also makes an exceptional gift for the serious wine lover who has everything.
