Soft Machine Rosewood

The Warmth of Wood, the Precision of Steel The Soft Machine® Rosewood is more than a corkscrew — it is a gesture, a material, and a moment. Crafted by L’Atelier du Vin, this version of the iconic Soft Machine® combines polished stainless steel with the deep hues of solid rosewood, assembled and finished by hand. Its mechanism is hidden, but its impact is immediate: smooth, fluid, effortless cork extraction in a single, continuous motion. A Unique Gear System for Seamless Uncorking At the core of every Soft Machine® is a rack and pinion gear system designed to extract corks vertically — without twisting, pulling, or damaging the cork. From vintage wines to young bottles, natural corks to synthetic, the movement remains clean and intuitive. An integrated foil-cutting blade is built into the handle, discreet and ready when needed. The corkscrew also includes a bottle opener. Everything is contained in a compact, ergonomic shape that feels balanced in the hand and timeless on the table. How to Use (3 Simple Steps) 1. Cut the foil using the integrated cutting wheel. 2. Center the screw on the cork and twist until reaching the red dot. Hold the support arm firmly on the bottle neck. 3. Pull the handle upward — the cork is released in one fluid motion. A Natural Presence The rosewood handle, with its subtle reddish-brown grain, brings a tactile warmth and visual depth to the piece. Each tool is assembled and finished by hand, and as with all natural woods, no two are exactly alike. Stored in a matte black gift box with protective sleeve, the Soft Machine® Rosewood makes a thoughtful companion for every wine ritual — and an object worth keeping. Also available in other finishes: crystal, silver and brass. A Legacy of Corkscrew Innovation With nearly a century of experience in the wine world, L’Atelier du Vin has designed corkscrews of every style — lever, twin-blade, T-shaped — each adapted to a unique use or context. The Soft Machine® series is a culmination of this expertise: technical, discreet, and poetic in its movement.
