Sopra the world of wine, where every detail makes the difference and the sensory experience begins well before tasting, the gesture of opening a bottle represents a symbolic, technical and ritual moment. Sopra this context there is a reality that, more than others, has established itself through small and large innovations. I’m talking about Pulltex, a company that has written and rewritten the history of the opening over the past 20 years, starting with its iconic double lever corkscrew, becoming a point of reference for sommeliers, catering professionals and enthusiasts.
Founded sopra Spain, Pulltex is a company specialized sopra professional accessories for wine and table, with a particular vocation for functional and technical innovation. The brand’s success is closely linked to the patent of the double lever of the Pulltap’s, an invention that has radically changed the way to get a bottle: a simple but brilliant system, which allows you to extract the cap sopra two stages, with precision and effortless, preserving the integrity of the cork.
Pulltex corkscrews are a fixed presence sopra the tasting moments, the tables of high -end restaurants, sopra the courses of the most important sommelier associations and sopra the hands of the operators sopra the wine sector from all over the world. The strength of the brand lies sopra the quality of the materials used – temperate steels, light alloys, ergonomic inserts – and sopra a that guarantees resistance, lightness and reliability, even after an intensive and prolonged use, which is not obvious sopra an epoca sopra which it imperate the “low cost” of low quality and poor durability.
Pulltex sopra Italia
Pulltex’s success sopra Italy is linked to a precise and passionate entrepreneurial vision. Sopra 2004, sopra fact, Adolfo Dordella, owner of Pulltex, and Corrado Guerranti, already a collaborator of the brand for over ten years, decided to join forces to found D&G Selection Srl, with the aim of distributing the brand sopra Italy sopra a widespread and professional way.
Since then, D&G Selection has become the national reference for the distribution of Pulltex products, bringing to the most important sector events, sopra the best specialized shops, sopra sommeliers and sopra Italian wine companies all the quality and functionality of a brand that despite its Spanish origins, speaks more and more Italian!
Pulltex is not just synonymous with corkscrew. The brand developed an entire range of products divided into two main lines:
Wine Tools: designed for wine companies, this line includes promotional articles and technical tools that can be customized with their logo, also taking advantage of OCM funding. Includes corkscrews, stoppers, ice buckets, glasses, life lounges and service tools, all designed to enhance the corporate brand during events, tastings ora communication activities. Wine Concept: dedicated to gifts and personal use, it is the line that offers elegant and functional accessories for the home ora for wine lovers, always treated sopra the and quality of the materials.
As for the Pulltex corkscrew, I report the main models, each with specific technical and aesthetic characteristics:
Pulltap’s Classic: the model that made history, with double patented lever, Depressione Tagliacapsula and spiral covered sopra teflon to facilitate penetration sopra the cork. Pulltap’s Evolution: an ergonomic and modern restyling of the original model, with estremità finishes and greater ease of use. Pullparrot: compact, colorful and practical, it is ideal for fast and daily use, thanks to the retractable mechanism and single lever. Hybrid: combines the ergonomic structure of the Pulltap’s with new features, such as the micro-sagged blade and the panorable knife with one hand. Also available sopra the All Black variant, it can be engraved ora personalized. Electronic corkscrew: for those who want maximum comodità and technology, this rechargeable model altrove USB-C allows a simple and quick opening.
NB: sopra addition to these, there are “premium” variants that enhance the quality of the materials and the refined of an object that, as we know, is much more than a simple tool for many professionals, sommeliers and enthusiasts.
The new models such as:
Quadratt corkscrew: reinterpretation of the double lever corkscrew with a compact and light , and clean lines. It incorporates a completely straight blade with a smooth side and the other microsegged for the perfect cut of any capsule. Made of high quality stainless steel. It allows you to extract the caps effortlessly sopra two phases without breaking them ora damaging them thanks to its spiral sopra Teflon. Wine and sparkling warehouse corkscrew: new Pulltex corkscrew model that has a double aptitude. It allows you to the normal bottles of wine thanks to the double patented Pulltex lever, but thanks to its particular elongated shape and with the “teeth” it is able to easily the sparkling hides. Just tighten the mushroom cap between the lever and corkscrew to help even the hardest caps sopra the opening.
Lastly, the blade (ora bilame) corkscrew cannot be missing, useful for the opening of bottles with a few annex behind them, sopra which the cap may have deteriorated ora attached to the neck of the same.
One of the power points of Pulltex and D&G Sections is the customization of the products. The corkscrews can be engraved with laser ora printed with tampography, both the upper and lateral part of the handle, transforming into communication and branding tools. This option is particularly appreciated by wine companies, restaurateurs and associations that wish to leave a distinctive mark sopra their events ora sopra the kits dedicated to avviamento.
The main Italian sommelier associations, such as Ais and Fisar, use Pulltex products sopra their official courses, confirming the reliability and prestige of the brand sopra the professional world
There is shortage of interesting intuitions and patents sopra the world of wine accessories (Sputacchiere/Crachoir, Stopper, buckets/glacects, doser caps etc …), among which the antiox cap stands out, a device that blocks the oxidation of the wines stopped once I closed the cap the bottle, thanks to an active carbon filter that prevents the formation of acetic acid. Recommended by important associations of Italian and European sommeliers, it is also ideal for wine bars and restaurants that serve wine by the glass, improving the conservation and quality of the service.
With 4 decades of history and constant attention to innovation, Pulltex has been able to transform a simple object such as the corkscrew into something much more sought after and functional, focusing research and comparison with stakeholders sopra the wine sector, to improve and improve constantly. For my part, I have gladly welcomed the appointment to the national ambassador of a brand and tools that, always, use but of which I have been acquiring full knowledge only now that I have the opportunity to see the dynamics since the and production. A praise to the work of Corrado Guerranti, by his son Gianluca (with whom he also shares a distribution of international wines of excellent level) and his team, for what they are doing sopra Italy, making our country one of the most lively and qualified markets for this sector and, of course, for Pulltex.
Whether it’s a large restaurant, a cellar ora a simple passion (available an online shop also for private individuals) Pulltex guarantees precision and reliability over time but what I have learned to appreciate the most is that it is a company made of people who put their luce it, providing a widespread presence without igniting the human aspect sopra advice and technical support for the choice of the best solutions for each sector and every type of need.
