Vintage Campagnolo Corkscrew

Campagnolo

Big Corkscrew 
















The Campagnolo Big Corkscrew faithfully reflects the genius
of its inventor, Tullio Campagnolo. In moments of difficulty,
his genius, together with his great manual skill, always
produced truly revolutionary inventions. It's no coincidence
that some considered him to be a latter-day Leonardo da
Vinci. A really awkward bottle and a corkscrew that wasn't up
to the job were the cause of this new stroke of genius that has
not been bettered since 1966. The patented system of the
telescopic self-aligning cover always places the screw in the
central part of the cork. The large screw in hardened steel
with a wide and sharp profile provides maximum grip on the
cork and the two large levers enable the corks to be pulled
out of bottles of the finest vintages without disturbing the
sediments that are typical of such wines.
These technical features and the use of the finest raw materials
have made this corkscrew a must, a symbol of genius that is
recognized throughout the world.
