In 1993, Master Sommelier Guy Vialis introduced the Chateau Laguiole® Classic, the first genuine waiter-style Laguiole corkscrew. Since its inception, Chateau Laguiole® has become a favorite among elite sommeliers worldwide and remains the top-selling and most counterfeited high-end waiter-style Laguiole corkscrew globally. Rest assured, all authentic Chateau Laguiole corkscrews, like this one, are 100% Made in France.
This exclusive edition was created in honor of Eric Beaumard of France, who earned an impressive second place at the 1998 World's Best Sommelier contest. As a deeply respected professional in the French wine industry, his demand for uncompromising performance and modern reliability is celebrated in the very design of this tool.
Handle Character: Designed with direct input from the champion himself, this specific model features a high-tech handle crafted from Genuine Carbon Fiber. Often known as graphite fiber, this advanced polymer is renowned for its incredible strength-to-weight ratio—being five times stronger than steel and twice as stiff, yet remarkably lightweight. This bulletproof material provides a sleek, modern aesthetic and is engineered to deliver many years of rigorous professional service, ensuring your corkscrew is a true masterpiece of modern craftsmanship.
