Screw capped wines are just as good as the ferments closed under cork and if you’re still to be sold on that inarguable fact, Wine Park has pulled out and twisted the screwcap on six of its most stellar wines across whites, reds and roses to make you a believer. If you’ve thus far regarded wines under cork to be superior to screw capped counterparts, you’re not alone. There are plenty of wine enthusiasts who still turn their noses up to wine under the relatively modern closure and hold cork in high esteem. The perception argument is a compelling one – corks have closed reliably aged wines for many centuries, stretching back to the 15th century. And their capacity to let in a certain level of oxygen over time has been credited with the stunning evolution of many a Bordeaux and Tuscan red vintage. But the very emergence and predominance of screwcaps especially in the new world gives away some pitfalls inherent to cork. There’s TCA, a chemical that occurs in the trees which account for cork’s raw material which is known to imbue a certain damaging taint to wine – one in several bottles albeit but what if you’re the one unfortunate recipient among thousands.
