How To Open Barefoot Wine

Are you tired of wrestling with your wine cork, only to end up with cork bits in your glass? Or worse, having to use a hammer and nail to extract the cork from a stubborn bottle? Worry not, fellow wine lovers! We've got you covered with our comprehensive guide on how to open Barefoot Wine like a pro - even if you're not a wine connoisseur. Spice up your next cool artsy gathering or simply enjoy a night in with expertly poured wine. Keep reading for tips and tricks that will make opening wine bottles as smooth as the wine itself.

Choosing the Right Wine Opener

  • Waiter's Corkscrew: This is the most traditional and widely-used wine opener. It's portable, easy to use, and suitable for most wine bottles, including Barefoot Wine.
  • Winged Corkscrew: With its two levers, this opener provides more leverage to pull the cork out. However, it may require more effort compared to a waiter's corkscrew.
  • Electric Wine Opener: Looking for a more convenient option? Go for an electric wine opener. With just a press of a button, the opener will do the work for you. Keep in mind, though, that you'll need to recharge or replace batteries regularly.

How to Open Barefoot Wine with a Waiter's Corkscrew

  1. Cut the foil: Firstly, remove the foil (or the capsule) covering the cork. With the corkscrew's serrated edge, cut around the foil just below the lip of the bottle. Grip the edge and peel it off to reveal the cork.
  2. Screw in the worm: Grip the bottle securely. Then, place the worm (the coiled part) onto the center of the cork, and twist the corkscrew until only one spiral is visible.
  3. Leverage and pull: With the notched part of the corkscrew resting on the lip of the bottle, apply downward pressure to lift the cork slightly out of the bottle. Adjust the lever's position to the lower notch (if applicable) and continue pulling until the cork is completely out.
  4. Remove the cork: Hold the cork securely with one hand, and twist the corkscrew counterclockwise to remove the cork. Voilà! Your Barefoot Wine is ready to be poured.
