When you’re cracking an old bottle that’s been in the cellar for 10, 20, 30, 40 or even 50 years, having the cork break and spending 20 minutes digging it out and straining the wine is a pain.
The Durand has never failed me!

I’ve tried Screwpulls, Ah-So’s, waiter’s friends of all persuasions, need air injectors, even power drills and coat hangers. The Durand trumps them all.

“The Durand™ is a fully patented, two part device that enables the user to successfully remove older and fragile wine corks whole and intact. The Durand was invented by wine collector Mark Taylor who had struggled with challenging corks when opening older fine wines. He founded Wining Taylors, LLC (based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA) to manufacture and market The Durand in 2007. The Durand is named for Yves Durand, a world-renowned sommelier, and a personal friend and mentor.
Using The Durand for older, fragile or compromised corks eliminates the unwanted outcomes of broken corks, corks pushed into bottles or corks partially removed leaving pieces floating in the wine. The Durand removes the cork whole and contained.
Numerous wine lovers, collectors, and nationally and internationally known sommeliers have enjoyed The Durand’s performance and appreciated its proven track record. The Durand has been well received and reviewed in the national and international press, as well as in wine magazines, periodicals, and online media.”
