Nice and simple method to open a bottle of wine…of course, you need to have a claw hammer handy! You could also try bumping the bottom of the bottle against a vertical surface (counter, table).

Lol, I am from Napa Valley and wine is my everyday subject, but I have never seen something like this. I wonder if there is a patent on “Wine opener replacement package”.
Great job, I like it!!!

This is funny – my friend and i ran into this same problem when we were moving and had packed up the opener. A little different but same tactic my husband got his drill and drilled through the cork it was one of the few things that were not packed.

Just youtube.com “open wine no corkscrew” there are a few methods. The phone book method is probably the most viable for the general audience.

This is a cool method I’ll have to remember next time. Funnily enough, last time I was stuck without a cork screw, I had a hammer and simply smashed the neck of the bottle off with it. Came off fine with very little mess although the girl sitting next to me on the sofa got some glass in her cleavage, which wasn’t cool really.

Hi,

Many years ago we would open a bottle of wine with a TOWEL. Place the towel on the bottom of the wine bottle folded end over end. Remove the cover from the cork, Holding the bottle sideways by the neck hit it against a wall with the towel on the base. The shock waves will slowly push the cork out of the bottle. I have done this 1000000s of times and never broke a bottle.
