  • @kimberlyk57 for sure it makes a lot of difference!! just think about why the champane has cork instead of plastic closures? The use of natural cork stoppers allow the oxygen to interact with wine for proper aging, and are best suited for bold red wines purchased with the intent to age.

  • Very interesting. My son likes to collect corks from the wine that his father drinks.

    He is bringing his collection to school for Show and Tell so it was nice to find this video so he could relate to the class a little bit about how corks are made. Some of the new corks are made from plastic which seems kind of weird. I'll have to research if that makes a difference in taste or not. Thanks again for posting this.

  • Top quality corks are expensive, and no matter what the cost, have the risk of containing TCA Cork taint and are susceptible to random oxidation due to their mechanical variability.
