Les Bons Amis

Two icons, inseparable companions. The art of living wine in ginger red and cobalt blue.

Les Bons Amis: when friendship becomes ritual

Les Bons Amis brings together two emblematic corkscrews by L’Atelier du Vin in a dialogue of colour, craftsmanship and character. Designer Margherita revisits these timeless tools, dressing them in genuine red and blue leather, infusing fresh energy into icons of wine culture.

The result is a duo that is both functional and aesthetic, deeply rooted in the French art de vivre. Two complementary opening mechanisms, working hand in hand so that no bottle — and no moment — is ever missed.

The meeting of the Bilame and the winged corkscrew

When the precision of the Bilame meets the convivial spirit of the winged corkscrew, the wine experience becomes complete. The former is the perfect ally for older bottles and fragile corks; the latter — known in France as Le Charles de Gaulle — is a beloved cultural icon, reliable and easy to use at family gatherings or evenings with friends.

From spontaneous picnics and winery tastings to family meals and oenological journeys, these two opening systems ensure flawless cork extraction in any circumstance.

Design, materials and character

The Bilame, faithful to its original simplicity in unrefined zamak, is wrapped in ginger red genuine leather. Its upper section remains visible, preserving the purity of the design and deliberately showcasing its raw links. Suspended from a black leather cord, it can be worn around the neck or wrist — always ready for an impromptu uncorking.

The winged corkscrew, meanwhile, is enhanced with a cobalt blue leather belt that highlights its iconic silhouette. Its matte black painted rivets add character, while its two arms rise elegantly to announce the start of a new tasting. It also includes an integrated bottle opener, perfect for craft beer enthusiasts.

"My idea was to marry unrefined and noble materials."

– Margherita, Leather designer for L’Atelier du Vin.

Two genuine leather cases, one vibrant combination

To emphasize both similarities and complementarities, the designer played with contrasting edges: red leather with a blue edge for one, and blue leather with a red edge for the other. The genuine leather brings texture, warmth and a contemporary presence, transforming these classics into modern companions for shared celebrations.

A gift that celebrates friendship and wine

Presented in a high-quality cardboard gift box — a nod to the unrefined materials composing both corkscrews — Les Bons Amis is the perfect gift for those who cherish fine wine and the pleasure of sharing it. Its name says it all: a tribute to good friends and memorable moments.
