The Coravin Timeless Standard Needle is the everyday replacement needle for the Coravin system, designed to give you a smooth, controlled pour while leaving the cork in place. It works with the same simple principle that makes Coravin so useful: the needle passes through the cork, wine is poured out, and 100% argon gas replaces it, protecting the wine left in the bottle from oxygen. It's a sensible needle to keep as a spare, particularly if you use your Coravin regularly. And because the standard needle is designed for everyday use rather than specifically for older or particularly fragile corks, it's the one you'll want for most of the bottles you open this way.
