Chateau Laguiole Classic Corkscrews

New & Improved 2020 Chateau Laguiole® Classic. The Chateau Laguiole® classic was the first true waiter-style Laguiole corkscrew on the market when it was created in 1993 by Master Sommeliers Guy Vialis.
Despite imitations and counterfeits, the Chateau Laguiole quickly became a favorite among the world's best sommeliers and continues to be the world's most-sold high-end Laguiole wine opener. Unfortunately, Mr. Vialis passed away in 2016, but the brand was given a fresh start after being purchased following contractual issues. To enhance wine service, consider the Chateau Laguiole brand, which is dedicated to quality and innovation in every sommelier's routine.

In 2020, the Chateau Laguiole® brand underwent some revisions that mainly focused on improving its construction. One notable improvement is the forging of the bee, which has now become an integral part of the spring top - it is no longer solder to the spring top. Additionally, the liners or plates are now thicker to prevent warping, while the bottom bolster is thicker and no longer has two decorative lines. Despite these changes, Chateau Laguiole® is still predominantly handmade in their new workshop in Thiers, France.

Did I purchase the older version of the Chateau Laguiole Classic model?
How can you tell? Just look at the bottom of the handle; the bolster of the new 2020 version looks plain with no lines. The current brand owner no longer authorizes retailing of the previous Chateau Laguiole model. However, several well-known retailers in France and the U.S. still offer old models. Such retailers are using old stock or inadvertently purchasing fakes.
Laguiole Imports does not retail the older Chateau Laguiole classic model.
