Brooke Shields' 'cool bar cart accessory' will upgrade your wine-drinking experience – and the design of your home bar
Not all bar carts are created equal, luckily, the model is here to make sure yours outshines all the rest with a stylish, sommelier-created accessory


Anyone who loves wine knows that it is an aesthetic passion as much as it is a culinary one. Drinking out of beautiful glasses, served from a beautiful bar cart or home bar, or using a beautiful cocktail set can completely upgrade the experience from mundane to fabulous. Brooke Shields's favorite corkscrew, The Sommelier from Forge De Laguiole, is the ultimate home bar accessory.
We've long been fans of her kitchen storage, and clearly, her home bar lives up to the standard it has set. Brooke Shields is drinking in style. 'The Laguiole wine opener is perfect if you appreciate wine and want to add a cool accessory to your bar cart,' she told Forbes as part of their gift guide. Whether you give it as a gift, or keep it for yourself, this elevated corkscrew is more than a tool – it's a timeless piece of decor.
Shields's recommended bar cart accessory is painstakingly crafted from French grape vines in France, by iconic brand Forge de Laguiole, which follows a tradition dating back to 1828. It can also be customized for a simple bespoke touch. The gentle curve of the handle would provide a break to the angularity of a typical home bar, while the natural materials add texture and depth. It comes in branded gift box with a beautiful leather case, making it easy to store in style.
However, just because Shields's home bar accessory is beautiful, doesn't mean it falls down on function. The Forge de Laguiole Sommelier Corkscrew was created with input from professional Sommeliers, creating an ergonomic and efficient design that can remove the cork from even a vintage bottle of wine. Plus, it includes a lifetime warranty, so you have protection if it ever breaks.
The Elevated Corkscrew Edit
If you love the idea of a high-end corkscrew, but Forge de Laguiole isn't quite your style, here are our editors' picks of corkscrews that will uplift your bar.
Similar but different, this wooden corkscrew mimics the look of Shields's recommendation at a fraction of the cost. It includes a Sommelier knife, corksctrew, foil cutter, and bottle opener.
If you prefer a corkscrew with a handle, this chrome and wood version is a great pick. The design feels wonderful in the hand, and looks great on a bar cart.
Shields's recommendation is a remidner that when it comes to design, the devil is in the details.
