Best Answer

There are different types of wine cork that can get stuck with wine opener. The ways to remove the stuck wine cork from the wine opener depends on the type of wine cork. If you have a synthetic wine cork (those that looks like rubber), you can use a knife to cut around the wine opener to loosen the wine cork. You can also use a knife when loosening a natural cork and you can also try putting the wine cork under a running tap water from the faucet. This should help in loosening the cork from the wine opener.

To avoid having wine corks get stuck in your wine opener, use wine openers that have long and thin screw like the ones that Screwpull have. Try Screwpull Table Model Metal Trilogy wine opener which has a thin screw.

What if the cork breaks in the wine bottle?

If the wine is an expensive wine, it will probably be ruined by a defective cork. An inexpensive wine will not be helped by a defective cork, but the damage is less noticeable. You will need to use a better corkscrew to remove the remaining part of the cork. You may have to strain the wine to get the bits out. Many taste tests have shown that there is no difference observed in the quality of wine with synthetic corks vs. natural corks. The plastic corks are quite inexpensive and do not break apart. Most wine lovers have an aversion to screwtops, but the fact is that screwtops are as effective at preserving wine as corks.
