# no you twat
corked doesn't mean that the cork is stuck in it.

it means that because cork is an organic substance its fucked up my wine. the bastard.

they really should put screwtops on everything.

# Not Quite....
A wine is 'corked' when a 'bad' cork transfers its aroma and taste to the wine. The cork will taste and smell mouldy and dank, usually through a mould infection or a chemical reaction. Can happen to any Material used to seal the bottle not just organic material!

Night all ! oh an buy decent wine :)

# just being pandantic .... :)
could actually happen to screw top aswell... it is normally the seal or not enough steralisation during bottling that does it :)

# screwtops on wine
is a fantastic idea.

1: no cork taint

2: you can reseal it properly if you should ever want to not finish the bottle (fairly redundant argument)

3: no corkscrew needed
