What's the best corkscrew?
The corkscrew you like
best. When I'm just opening
one bottle for an evening
meal, the classic waiter's
corkscrew works for me.
However, when it's time to
open a slew of wines for a
party or a tasting, that's when
I pull out the Screwpull.
Many models are available,
but my favorite is the sleek
LM-400, which gets a lot of
bottles opened fast.
I appreciate the slick one-two
action of pulling the
cork. You simply grip the
Screwpull over the bottle
and squeeze the bottom
while pulling the lever over
the top of the bottle.
I've found that other styles
of these contraptions
require some major upper-body
strength. Not this
one. Rather than the usual
knockdown, drag-out fight I
have with a cork, it elegantly
glides out at my command.
