Hoppe Shoppe Oak Wine Stopper

The stopper is specifically engineered to create a secure seal for standard 750ml wine bottles. While it may fit some spirits or vinegar bottles with similar neck diameters, it is not designed for oversized or non-standard bottle openings.

Simply wipe the stopper down with a damp cloth after use. It is not dishwasher safe, and you should avoid soaking it in water to prevent the natural wood and cork from swelling or warping.

The ebonized finish is achieved through a process that darkens the wood while allowing the natural grain to remain visible. Because it is a natural material, the depth of the color and the pattern of the grain will vary slightly from piece to piece.

No, the linseed oil is used to seal and protect the exterior wood. It is applied to the handle portion and does not come into contact with the wine, ensuring your beverage remains untainted.

With proper care—specifically keeping it dry and avoiding harsh cleaning agents—the natural cork is durable enough for years of regular use. If the cork eventually dries out or loses its elasticity, it is a sign that it has reached the end of its functional lifespan.
