Have you ever been troubled by the question of whether to buy a wine with a cork軟木塞 or a screw(螺絲)top螺旋蓋?
In fact, the way to seal密封 wines is also a tough困難 problem for the wineries.
The root根源 of the problem lies in存在於“cork taint木塞感染.”
When some wine is sealed密封 with a bad cork軟木塞, there will be cork taint.
Corks are made from a special oak tree growing around the Mediterranean地中海.
In the process of making corks and sealing wine bottles, a certain type of mold模子 may start to grow in some corks.
Over time隨著時間, this mold may make the wine taste musty發黴.
Since cork taint affects one out of every ten每十分之一 bottles of wine, no packaging industry in the world would put up with忍受such a high rate of failure.
Some wine makers try to solve the problem by sealing bottles with screw tops.
However, many wineries are still playing it safe and sticking to corks for two reasons.
First, cork users believe a small amount量 of oxygen is able to penetrate滲入 corks, not screw tops, and the oxygen is necessary for the proper適當 aging of fine wines.
The other problem arises from the image印象 screw tops have with the public公眾.
In most people’s minds, screw tops are only found on cheap, low-quality wines.
In addition, there is the problem of losing the romantic mood produced by the popping of the cork.
For the reasons above, it will take a lot of efforts for wineries to re-educate the public if they want to change the habit of the public.
