The Durand – Flaschenöffner – Korkenzieher

Corkscrews for professionals

For us, quality is the most important thing! Because just as with the texture, the exact origin and the filling level of the bottles, there is only the best for us also with the aids and tools. May Wines has been importing this corkscrew since its foundation and has been a great friend of this product even before, when wine was a passion and not a profession. We have already convinced most of our customers, because we have made the experience that there is nothing that this corkscrew cannot do. Especially if you like to drink mature wines, you often have the problem of somewhat damaged or torn corks.

The combination of two classics
Not so with The Durand, created in 2007 by Mark Taylor. The wine collector from America, has developed a corkscrew that is a hybrid of two different types of bottle openers: the spindle corkscrew and the blade or clasp corkscrew. This provides the optimal mix of pulling force and compression of the cork when pulling it out. Not only is this tool ingenious to use, it is also incredibly high quality.

Berndt May explains how to use The Durand correctly
As passionate old wine drinkers and ardent wine tasters, only the finest is good enough for the May Wines team, of course.
Proper glasses and carafes, drop-stops, coolers, Coravin and of course various corkscrews – we have the right tools for every occasion.
