Champagne Stoppers by Kloveo - Patented Seal (No Pressure Pump Needed) Made in Italy - Professional Grade WAF Champagne Bottle Stopper - Prosecco, Cava, and Sparkling Wine Stopper

Product Information

Another tip to keep your champagne, prosecco, or cava fresher for longer is to make sure the bottle is kept cold. Cold liquids are better at retaining dissolved gas. How long does champagne last with a stopper? Some wine stoppers are made to fit a standard-size wine bottle, while others are able to expand and fit most any size bottle. A number of stoppers will not fit screw-top bottles, so be aware of this when searching for the right wine stopper for you. There are many varieties of wine stoppers. Some are made with cork; others use silicone or rubber to provide the seal. While they are designed to provide an airtight seal to keep your wine fresh, some are also funky or elegant in their looks. From monograms to a variety of colors and shapes, wine stoppers can not only keep your wine happy and fresh but provide a cute or elegant topper, too. A regular wine stopper may prolong the life of your bubbles for a few hours in a pinch, but it really isn’t ideal. That’s because champagne stoppers keep the pressure from escaping the bottle as well as oxygen from entering the bottle after it has been opened, while stoppers made exclusively for still wine only focus on minimizing the oxygen. If you drink any type of sparkling wine, it’s a good idea to have a champagne stopper on hand.

In doing this, we whittled our longlist down and chose a top list that we think offers a champagne stopper for every need and price point. Why you should trust us

For some god-awful reason you’re not finishing that bottle of sparkling wine you popped. We’ll assume it’s something like a fire drill or maybe an inclement Sharknado. Either way, the bubbles are going bye-bye for now and you’d kind of like to save them. The functionality of a wine stopper should be taken into the equation when deciding what you want in this useful tool. They can keep an open bottle of wine fresh for a few days, or vacuum-seal it. There are even some that provide the handy feature of being both a stopper and a pour spout. If you want to be able to lay the wine bottle on its side, you'll want one that provides a leak-free seal, too.

For a wine stopper that will work to preserve all your wine (including sparkling wine) and fit most bottles, our top choice is the Rabbit Champagne and Wine Sealer. If you'd like your bottles to last more than a few days, it's time to invest in the Coravin Pivot Wine-by-the-Glass System. What to Look for in a Wine Stopper Design

Are champagne and wine stoppers the same?

Thanks to its low profile look and metal finish, the OXO Good Grips stopper appeals even to our most discerning of testers. The sturdy wedge mechanism easily increases pressure on the seal with one single motion by expanding the silicon plug, creating a good seal with little effort. The stainless top has a sleek yet subtle look that will fit in with most kitchens or dining areas. Without adding any extra pumps or multi-piece clutter, it seals the bottle well and is easy to clean; what more can you ask? Removal is also quite easy, without any twisting or severe tugging necessary. These handy little stoppers do their job without being overly flashy or complicated. They are simple, convenient, and nothing more than is necessary, making it simple for you to moderate and save some wine for another evening. If you have a habit of not finishing expensive bottles but still want to maintain the flavor and effervescence for weeks at a time, the Coravin Sparkling preservation system is a worthy investment. The rechargeable tool uses CO2 capsules that conveniently indicate when they’re ready to replace with a status display. Champagne stoppers are different from conventional wine stoppers as the purpose is to keep the drink fizzy, rather than prevent oxidation. Sparkling wine is less affected by oxidation due to high levels of acidity and carbon dioxide that protect the wine’s flavour. What is the best champagne stopper to buy? When you pour a glass of wine, the space you create in the bottle fills with air. The air goes to work on the wine, in a process known as oxidation. While some oxygen can bring out the best in wine, over the course of a few days the airflow will mute the flavors and cause the wine to spoil. Vacuum sealers are designed to pump air out of wine bottles and slow down that process. Vacu Vin’s Wine Saver Pump and Stoppers brought this technology to the masses, and the original model is still one of the best.
