A great gift for wine lovers, this Pinzon gift set includes a wine opener, foil cutter, and stopper. The powerful cork puller effortlessly extracts the cork from any wine bottle with simple lever action. Simply lift the rubber-finished lever up, clamp on the bottle's neck with the Penguin's side grips, push down the lever to drive the corkscrew into the cork, and raise the lever to pull the cork out cleanly. Releasing the cork from the screw involves the same action. For strength and longevity, the opener is constructed of stainless steel with black plastic accents. Accompanying the cork puller is a foil cutter that strips away the foil covering a cork, and an extra screw that can be installed with a screwdriver. The opener also comes with a stopper that tightly seals your leftover wine in the bottle. All pieces in this set should be hand washed and are imported.

From the Manufacturer

We've all seen a waiter or waitress struggle to open a bottle with a stubborn cork in front of a large crowd. Well, no more. Pinzon is proud to present the Penguin Wine Opener--a reliable and easy-to-use wine opener. Simply follow these easy instructions to use the foil cutter, wine opener, and stopper, and you'll be opening bottles in no time.

To use the Pinzon Penguin Foil Cutter:

  • Position the circular foil cutter over the top of the bottle.
  • Press the sides of the cutter in lightly and twist a couple of times around the bottle.
  • The foil top neatly removes to expose the cork.

To Use the Pinzon Penguin Wine Opener:

    1. The sleek Penguin is designed to effortlessly remove a wine bottle cork.
    2. Raise the lever and clamp the Penguin down over the neck of the bottle.
    3. Grasp the rubberized inserts securely with one hand to hold the bottle steady.
    4. Use the other hand to lower and then raise the lever in one smooth motion. (Although you can’t see it, the corkscrew enters and pulls out the cork.)
    5. With the lever up, lift the Penguin off the bottle. The cork will be inside the Penguin.
    6. Lower and raise the lever again, and voilà! The cork slides off the corkscrew.
        Note: The Penguin can be used to open wines bottled with regular corks, but careful use is advised when opening bottles with synthetic corks.

To Use the Pinzon Penguin Stopper:
  • The stopper preserves for days on end the bouquet and flavor of a partially consumed bottle of wine.
  • Plastic ridges on the stopper collar help provide an airtight seal.

To Replace a Corkscrew on the Pinzon Penguin Opener:
  • Raise the lever and find the largest of three Phillips screws in the body of the Penguin.
  • Unscrew the largest Phillips screw to release the corkscrew.
  • Pull out the Penguin screw and insert the replacement underneath the lever. Then reinsert and screw in the Phillips screw from where it was removed.

Cleaning Instructions:

  • Wipe clean with a damp towel and let air dry. Do not put into dishwasher.

To Unlock the Pinzon Penguin Wine Opener: If the wine pull is not used correctly, the lever will lock itself. In order to release the mechanism:
  • Place the wine pull over an empty wine bottle neck.

  • Pull up and down in the action of opening a bottle of wine.

  • Never force the handle or it may break.
