Corked wines

[Tabby]

I've been incredibly lucky as regards corked bottles of wine. I would estimate that out of every 100 bottles I taste, only 3 or 4 are corked. I don't believe my tolerance to "corkiness" is any greater than the next person's....

As to synthetic corks, I just don't like 'em...not only for aesthetic reasons, also because this style of cork will not re-stopper an open bottle - struggle as I might!!

Foodie, I believe you ARE in the minority! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img] I love the sound of a popping cork. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]
