REGULAR CORK<\/strong> – it\u2019s waterproof and elastic therefore the cork isolates wine from the external agents, but it has natural microporosity that allows gas exchange. It\u2019s the only cork that lets wine to live and mature in the bottle over extended time. COLMATED CORK<\/strong> \u2013 is 90% natural cork and 10 % natural glue mixed with cork granules. The process of using the natural glue and cork granules helps to fill in some of the cork\u2019s pores which helps keep the cork strong. It presents a smooth and uniform surface. It\u2019s used for medium aging still wines<\/strong> (max 3 years).<\/p>\n\n\n\n CHAMPAGNE CORK<\/strong>: Its shape is different from a traditional cork and its diameter is superior. This characteristic is crucial to withstand the high pressures present in these bottles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n OTHER CLOSURES<\/strong> – Screw Caps, VinoLok, Zork, Helix\u2026the list goes on, and continues to grow.

MULTI-PIECE CORK<\/strong> -There are two or more pieces of cork glued together. The cork comes from planks of low thickness which give the cork a high density. It\u2019s usually made with cork scraps. This type of cork is used for larger bottles that don\u2019t need aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SYNTHETIC CORK<\/strong> – it which has been proven to significantly reduce the risk of tainted wine. Available in a variety of styles and quality levels, they allow the consumer to still have the ‘wine experience’ by pulling the cork. However it should be noted they are not intended for wines that need aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
