Do you have a large collection of vintage wines and are worried about the quality of the cork? Then the vintage needle is the solution! The vintage needle from the revolutionary brand Coravin fits every Coravin wine system. The needle is thinner than the standard needle and therefore you can easily tap wine from bottles with an old fragile cork. This has the disadvantage that pouring wine is 40% slower than with the standard needle, but patience is rewarded! Pouring a wine glass with the vintage needle takes about 53 seconds. In addition, the needle is made of high-quality stainless steel with a special Teflon coating. The Teflon coating ensures minimal friction while poking the fragile corks. Also, the needle has a length of 9.5 centimeters.
