Finding an effective way to open a bottle of wine can be a challenge for anyone, but for those living with rheumatoid arthritis, the task can seem daunting. When the fingers and hands are weak from stiffness and inflammation, it can be difficult to find an opener that is not only comfortable to use, but also reliable.
This frustration of not being able to open a bottle can take away from the joy of what should be a relaxing experience. Thankfully, there are now specially designed wine openers that make it easier for arthritic hands to get the job done.
If removing the foil around the bottle is also a challenge for you then you want to look for an opener that also includes a foil cutter.
There are two major types of wine bottle openers.
Let’s explore the features and benefits of the top ranking wine bottle openers that I found in these categories.
