Rogar Champion Estate Wine Opener

[hotwine]

O-o-o-o-k. Used it last night on a bottle of Avignonesi RdM to accompany her eggplant parmesan. Zippity-do, quick as a flash. Slick!

It's kind of counter-intuitive, at least to this old dog: you clamp the bottle neck with your left hand and start with the handle pushed all the way back, then pull the handle toward you to penetrate and remove the cork. (If you start with the handle pulled forward and lift up and back, you'll punch the cork down into the bottle.... not so good.)
