Why are some red wine corks and some screw lids?
In the era of change and improvement, because the cork oak is the production, making up the time-consuming, bad smell so expensive, and a new generation of cork has the characteristics of cheap, no pollution, easy to scale cork taste operation.
1, James - Hallidy (James Halliday) legend the Australian wine has opposed Wine in screw cap bottle is difficult to ripening point of view, he said "the use of screw cap does not mean that Wine not in bottle development, they will only slow a lot of development."2, wine will develop slowly in a screw cap bottle, so the wine in the screw cap wine bottle will stay longer than the cork bottle. Using a wine bottle with a screw cap to store wine allows the wine to taste fresh, and the red wine is fruity.3, the use of screw cap wine bottles will not appear cork flavor. Cork pollution is mainly because the cork in TCA (three spanon) into Wine, which greatly affected the aroma Wine, serious will enable you to open a bottle of Wine smell don't smell "(though harmless). Cork contamination is what happens when wine is bottled. It can only be found after opening a bottle. No matter how expensive it is, a good wine is only contaminated by a cork.
The screw cap solves the problem of cork contamination (TCA). Because the sealing of the screw cap is very good, it can prevent air from entering the wine bottle.4, writer and journalist George M. Taber once said: "the world is still very many wine lovers love open the cork wine brought a sense of romance", of course, there is no doubt that a bottle of special wine up there will be some romantic feelings, but more fans and friends in the wine bottle. What kind of wine, instead of using the cork. If you open a bottle of wine with an oak stopper and find that the wine in the bottle has a cork smell, it seems that the romance of the cork has vanished!5, the first great Wine critic Robert Parke (Robert Parker) said: "more and more advanced wineries began to use the screw cap bottle must drink 3 to 4 years Wine (the Wine accounted for 95% of the world Wine). The trend will continue, when the screw cap will become the standard bottle cap for most of the world's wines."The idea, of course, is not to convince the public which cork is better, but to emphasize that the quality of wine using a screw cap is no worse than that of a bottle of oak.
