If you know someone who drinks wine, or at least opens wine for someone else who drinks it, then here is a great kitchen gift idea. Actually, this would make a great hostess gift as well, so all you people heading off to someone else’s home for a meal over the holidays, keep this in mind!
The Metrokane Rabbit Wine Opener is a great tool. I don’t know about you, but I hate using an old fashioned cork screw to open a wine bottle. Invariably, I’ll somehow mess it up and end up with cork in the bottle. So not cool. I’ve been using one of these for years and love it! In seconds, the cork is out of the bottle with no fuss and no muss.

- All fit into the included case that makes this great for gift giving or storage

Metrokane Rabbit Wine Opener Reviews
Many others have used the Metrokane Rabbit and love it as well. Here’s what a few other reviewers have to say:
Nice Wine Opening Kit…Good Gift to Give – From Parrothead @amazon.com
I gave this to my sister for X-mas. She’s an avid wine drinker and thus opens a lot of bottles. She said she really likes it. As for the other tools, she likes the anti-drip ring. I was going to get an electric wine bottle opener, but heard they aren’t always reliable.
Awesome Rabbit – From Catbird63 @amazon.com
This well-engineered corkscrew is just great! If you drink even a few bottles of wine per month it’s definitely worth the investment. The rabbit operates smoothly and simplifies bottle opening with a fun twist.
A Great Gift – From Ami @amazon.com
The Rabbit wine opener works just as advertised, although it takes a little more muscle than I originally thought. And what a great conversation piece! The foil cutter makes opening a bottle that much easier. The drip guard, to my surprise, doesn’t fall off the bottle into your glass when you pour out the last little bit, as long as you push it all the way down the neck as far as it can go. I haven’t had occasion to use the wax remover. The only piece in this kit I don’t really understand is the sealer, it hasn’t fit on any bottle I’ve tried yet. But then, I haven’t tried it on a bottle of champagne yet, so maybe it will fit for that. The kit comes in an attractive case that stands up, which makes it a great gift.
The Metrokane Rabbit Wine Opener Tool Kit is a Great Kitchen Gift Idea
So have we convinced you that this is a great kitchen gift idea? Of course, not everyone that has bought this has been 100% happy with it, but as I’ve said, I love mine.
