The Product
The Durand® is a broadly patented device engineered to tackle the toughest, most fragile corks found in mature and collectible wines. Drawing on decades of wine-collector feedback and professional sommelier usage, it features a unique extraction method that removes compromised corks — whole and intact — without damage to the bottle or wine. From the most delicate Burgundy grands crus to aged Bordeaux and historic New World treasures, The Durand® has been repeatedly tested on challenging corks and delivers consistent, flawless results. With high-grade stainless steel construction, precision tolerances and a design optimized for minimal vibration and maximum control, it’s the go-to tool for serious collectors, cellars and professional service.
Cellared Says
Imagine your finest bottles – 20-, 30-, 40-year-old vintages resting patiently in your cellar. One cork fails. The Durand® stands between success and heartbreak. For the discerning collector who insists on perfect alignment of equipment with their wines, this accessory isn’t optional — it’s essential. Functions as flawlessly an extension of your cellaring expertise. The ultimate corkscrew for old bottles of wine.
Key Features:
Safe extraction of fragile, aged corks without pushing into the bottle or breaking apart
Designed for 90 mm and standard “champagne size” and vintage bottles
Compatible with whole-cork extractions in antique and older bottles
Finished in brushed stainless and high-grade polymer for durability and minimal contamination risk
Comes with calibration tool and protective sheath (optional)
Backed by a limited lifetime warranty for collector usage
Usage & Notes
Suitable for bottles where the cork is partially compromised or has lost structural integrity, including those stored long-term or with minor seepage. Ideal for wine rooms, cellars, auction houses and private-client service. Always ensure the cork rim is exposed and the bottle is anchored in a drip tray or dedicated extraction station.
Wine Accessory Reviews
“Game-changer for advanced cellars — finally a device that handles old corks with surprising ease and precision.”
Five Stars – Tom Sullivan MW, Wine Collector Review
“This tool enabled us to open a 1982 cellar lot without a single cork crumb falling in — the call-out winemaker said it saved the lot.”
