Drop-stop disc


The drop-stop disc is a flexible film rolled and slipped into the neck of a bottle to stop drips from running down the glass after pouring. Its coated surface cuts the stream of wine cleanly and protects the tablecloth from stains. Light and reusable, it complements the use of a service napkin. An experienced sommelier achieves the same result through a slight twist of the wrist at the end of the pour, without any accessory.
