Wine-related assistance required
Friday, 16 December 2005 02:07 pmI need help!
My father would like a wine stopper for Christmas. The criteria are: it should be cone-shaped with rubbery bits around it so it fits different-sized bottles. It should have a sturdy handle on top so it can be easily pulled out. It should not be of an 'amusing' design. It should, if possible, be shiny, and of obviously high quality.
I have Googled a lot, and I can't find anything that quite fits the bill.
The stoppers on these are good, but the tops aren't pullable enough (I think).
This looks good and sturdy but isn't the cone-shaped sort he wants.
This one looks good, is cone-shaped with rings, and is recommended by a wine maker, but I am unconvinced by the handle.
This looks pretty good, but can I get something high-quality enough from a website called supercoolgifts.co.uk?
This one has the handle but perhaps not enough rubber bits?
This one might actually be perfect except that it's in an 'amusing' design and I'm always suspicious of those.
Can anyone who drinks wine give me a hand here? Suggestions? Which look good? Which should I avoid? Any help at all is welcomed.
