L'Atelier du Vin makes wine tools worthy of your collection. A classic for a reason, the de Gaulle-style corkscrew opens bottles smoothly and efficiently. Crafted of durable Zamak metal with a timeless matte finish, the essential tool features a Teflon coating on the forged spiral so it slides smoothly into corks. A soft plastic lining on the self-centering base creates stability while protecting the bottle. The arms rise gracefully as you twist, and a simple press of the levers opens your bottle. This elegant tool makes a lovely host gift, especially accompanying a special bottle.
