The Le Creuset Screwpull range saw the light of day in 1979, when Herbert Allen, a tool inventor for the oil industry in Texas, sat down and decided to develop a tool that would remove a cork from a bottle of wine without force, injury or embarrassment. The experiment was inspired by his wife’s ire after having a particularly frustrating experience opening a bottle of wine, and went on to revolutionise the way we open, store and present wine.
The Screwpull range includes the following products:
Screwpull Lever Models:
The Lever models are the perfect accessory for the modern wine connoisseur and take the headache out of opening older vintages that may have some cork disintegration, etc.
Screwpull Cooling:
The Cooler Sleeve allows you to cool your wine on the go and in style. The elastic sides and tapered top provides a snug fit; your wine cools in minutes and stays frosty for hours.
Screwpull Activ-ball Range:
The Activ-ball range represents a new level of simplicity when it comes to opening your wine - all due to the inclusion of the unique, patented activ-ball technology. Now you can remove corks effortlessly and take the cork of the screw just as easily. All Activ-ball products come with a five year guarantee as well.
Screwpull Champagne Opener:
The champagne opener is the perfect option for waiters/sommeliers/mere civilians who want to open champagne bottles simply, without the worry of putting someone’s eye out or losing half the wine down the side of the bottle in the process. Now you simply place the opener over the bottle, press down firmly, turn the bottle and voila!
Screwpull Foil cutters:
