The Durand®: Special Corkscrew for Old Vintages

The corkscrew The Durand is a high-end tool specifically designed for wine enthusiasts who enjoy the pleasures of tasting old vintages. This versatile and innovative instrument combines the efficiency of a traditional corkscrew with the delicacy of a sommelier's worm.

The corkscrew The Durand is a fully patented two-part device that allows the user to successfully remove corks from old and fragile wine bottles, keeping them whole and intact. The Durand was invented by wine collector Mark Taylor, who long struggled with stubborn corks when opening older wines. He founded Wining Taylors, LLC (based in Atlanta, Georgia, USA) to manufacture and market The Durand in 2007. The Durand is named after Yves Durand, a world-renowned sommelier, personal friend, and mentor.

Using the Durand for older, fragile, or compromised corks eliminates the undesirable effects of broken corks, corks pushed into bottles, or partially removed corks leaving pieces floating in the wine.
