Three Lever Gilda Corker
£18.95
With the main handles spread apart a cork is inserted between the 4 moving jaws in the centre nylon housing.
Then as the handles are brought together the cork is compressed so that it can easily be inserted into the wine bottle.
Just sit the corker on the wine bottle, hold the main handles together with one hand and push down the third (metal) handle with the other and the cork will pop in!
A few tips about corking.
Always use silicone or waxed corks, as these do not need to be soaked.
And always stand the bottle on the floor so that you can give a good push and the job is so much easier!
