A Professional Corkscrew Designed for Precision and Performance

A Tool Designed for the Demanding Hand of a Sommelier

When opening a fine bottle becomes a matter of precision, nothing replaces the reliability of a professional corkscrew. The Chef Sommelier by L’Atelier du Vin is a tribute to those who open bottles with expertise, grace, and confidence. Designed in France and drawing on nearly a century of oenological craftsmanship, this wine opener is built for professionals—yet it speaks just as clearly to the connoisseur at home.

Strength Meets Elegance

Crafted from solid stainless steel and adorned with hand-finished dark wood panels, the Chef Sommelier is an object of both power and poise. Its clean lines and minimalist silhouette are not just for show—they reflect a philosophy of purposeful design. Every material, every contour serves a function: to offer absolute control and effortless efficiency in the hands of the user.

The ergonomic thickness of the body gives it a stable, satisfying grip, making it easy to handle even the most stubborn corks. Whether you are serving guests in a high-end restaurant or savoring a vintage in your private cellar, this corkscrew offers a professional touch from start to finish.

Engineered for Performance

Equipped with a grooved spiral worm, a foil-cutting blade, and a bottle opener, the Chef Sommelier is a complete tool. Its standout feature? A precision double-lever system, used by wine professionals across the hospitality industry.

This two-step mechanism:

– Gently lifts the cork halfway with the first lever

– Effortlessly completes the extraction with the second, allowing a smooth and controlled motion

No tearing. No resistance. Just clean, seamless opening—again and again.

A Unique Object, Hand-Finished in Wood

Each Chef Sommelier corkscrew is made unique by its hand-polished hardwood inlays, making it more than a tool—it is an individual piece. The richness of the dark wood grain gives each one its own character, while the steel body ensures long-term durability and reliability.
