I keep giving them to my friends.  They are all wine collectors with older established cellars.  The Durand is the best thing that ever happened to vintage wine!

I tried The Durand over the weekend and it worked perfectly in a bottle of Chateau Palmer 1921, the corked was soaked all the way through, but still managed to get it out in one piece...and the wine was outstanding, so a great debut for my Durand!

The Durand is invaluable! As a floor sommelier with some older offerings, I haven't had any corks disintegrate from usage of the Durand, even some real mules which are notorious for making cork dust (50's Bordeaux, late 60's Napa) Thanks for the great product!

I'm a proud owner of The Durand, and have given a few away as gifts--always well received. I most recently opened a bottle of 1947 Lafite--the cork flawlessly extracted by The Durand! “

There is no question that The Durand is the only tool to use for opening older wines. You guys definitely need one!

It has been the most valuable wine tool I have ever used…  The Durand has been so valuable I hope everyone gets one and enjoys it...

I have opened hundreds of bottles flawlessly with The Durand. Typical issues of problem cork removal are eliminated with The Durand’s unique ability to stabilize the cork during extraction, eliminating side tension, the primary cause of cork fracture and breakage.  It is a “must-have” tool for the wine enthusiast and Sommelier to avoid cork removal issues. I give The Durand my highest recommendation.
