Frequently Asked Questions

What makes The Durand® different from a traditional corkscrew?

Unlike standard corkscrews, The Durand is specifically designed to remove older, delicate corks that are more likely to crumble or break. Its patented two-part design minimizes breakage and ensures a smooth removal process.

Can The Durand® be used on synthetic or newer corks?

The Durand® is optimized for natural corks only, particularly those found in older bottles. It is not intended for use with healthy corks in current or younger vintages, nor should it be used to open bottles with synthetic cork closures.

Is The Durand® suitable for all bottle sizes?

The Durand® is specifically designed to remove corks from wine bottles that have a bore size (opening diameter) of 1.9 cms. These include the widely-used 750 ml bottle, as well as most magnums. Notably, The Durand® should not be used with larger formats (beyond a magnum) because these typically have a larger bore.

Can I reuse an extracted cork after using The Durand®?

Ideally, once removed from a bottle, all wine corks should not be reused. Used corks are less able to provide a perfect seal that may cause wine spoilage or contamination.

Does The Durand® require maintenance or cleaning?

After each use, simply wipe The Durand® with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging it in water, and ensure that it is completely dry before storing.

Is The Durand® a good gift for wine lovers?

Absolutely! The Durand® is highly regarded by sommeliers, collectors and wine enthusiasts worldwide. It makes a perfect gift for anyone who enjoys older vintages of fine wines.
