Considered design for gentle wine opening

The conical worm with five turns is specially designed to protect even the most fragile corks from older vintage wines. The corkscrew's sharpened foil blade cuts precisely through the capsule and foil, whilst the patented lever arm provides optimal control throughout the entire opening process. This significantly reduces the risk of broken corks and ensures an elegant presentation every time. The ergonomic design allows bottles to be opened with minimal effort, even after many services.

Traditional craftsmanship with character

Each corkscrew is a piece of living cultural history from the Laguiole region of France, where the knifemaking tradition dates back to 1828. The olive wood handle not only provides a warm, natural feel but also a secure grip. The characteristic bee on the spine is the iconic symbol of authentic French craftsmanship.
