Which Wine Opener is Best? Reviewing 5 Different Corkscrew Styles

It’s hard to find the correct right wine opener for the task at hand. We’ve done the hard work for you and matched each wine opener to its purpose. Check out our handy list below.
The best wine opener for… a space saving, all-in-one tool
A Waiter’s Friend corkscrew is a classic opener that most professionals use (hence the name). It’s designed to slide into the waiter's pocket, and look sleek while opening wine.
It has three handy functions - a fold out foil cutter, a classic helix corkscrew, and a classic bottle cap opener. With this tool, you won’t need anything else. Plus its small size is great for tucking away in the kitchen drawer.
The best wine opener for… corked wine
An air pump uses pressurised air to release the wine cork, with little to no effort or force needed. If you’re fed up with crumbly corks and failed corkscrews, this simple contraption will blow your socks off.
The best wine opener for… champagne and prosecco bottles
The champagne star opener is the easiest tool for opening champagne and prosecco bottles. The four-pronged tool slots around the cork, and with a simple twist, the bottle has been popped - with no tea towels in sight! The star opener is also great for people who struggle with grip or arthritis.
The best wine opener for… parties and get-togethers
Amongst all the formal wine accessories, it’s always fun to have something a little different for a wine-centered soirée. Whether it’s intended as a gift or simply to keep yourself amused, we recommend our Budgie Bottle Opener, it’s practical with its three-in-one waiter’s friend functions, but its cute budgie exterior always proves a successful talking point.
The best wine opener for… wine and beer bottles
A winged corkscrew is a staple for the kitchen drawer, the multi-tool easily opens both wine and beer bottles. It may be basic, but it gets the job done.
There are of course other accessories that will aid in your wine opening adventures. Consider the following for the best wine opening experience.
Foil cutter - for seamlessly slicing foil tops on premium wine bottles
Wine collar - for catching drips before they run down the bottle
Wine stopper - for preserving opened wine for a little longer
