The Wine Stopper: Preserve the Taste

Drinking wine is something you do at your own pace. But once the cork is popped, the clock starts ticking. Oxygen is good for letting the wine breathe, but too much air causes the flavor and aroma to fade within a day. A waste of wine and a waste of your money.

This vacuum pump has been the standard since 1986, and for good reason: it simply works. Instead of pushing back the old cork, you use the included rubber stopper. Simply place the pump on top and pull out the excess air. Once you hear a clear click, the bottle is airtight. You can then simply leave the bottle upright in the refrigerator or on your countertop until you're ready for another drink.

No complicated stuff, just solid Dutch tools that do what they promise.

Why this shouldn't be missing from your gear:

The famous click: No guessing; the pump automatically indicates when the vacuum is optimal.

No waste: Enjoy a nice glass during the week without the bottle tasting of vinegar the next day.

Solid quality: Dishwasher safe, reusable and designed to last for years.

How it works (simply explained): Push the stopper into the bottle, attach the pump, and pull the lever up and down. Do you hear the click? Then you're good. The wine is now protected from oxidation and stays fresh for days.
