The Cork Catcher from Le Creuset/Screwpull prevents you from ending up, literally, blind drunk from a “rocket-powered cork” shot from a Champagne bottle. Place this “polycarbonate” device on the bottle’s mouth, give it a swift twist, and the cork will safely unload “a few inches north” into a narrow enclosure. You’ll avoid “ocular trauma” as well as sudden overflows that waste precious bubbly.
