<p>A device for controllably removing a bottle stopper from a bottle containing a liquid and natural high pressure gas, such as a sparkling wine, in which the stopper is conventionally held in place, at least in part, by a wire hood. There are means for gripping the bottle adjacent the pouring lip, but free of the wire hood. There are means for gripping the stopper, which means will permit a loosening of the wire hood. There is further means for applying an axial turning movement to the gripping device to torsionally remove the stopper from the bottle opening, which removal is under control and at no time will permit an uncontrolled discharge of the stopper.</p> |
