]]> Comment on Natural Cork versus Screw Caps: Do either indicate wine quality? by Richard http://www.viralvines.com/2011/12/03/natural-cork-versus-screw-caps-do-either-indicate-wine-quality/#comment-123 Richard Sat, 10 Dec 2011 17:59:00 +0000 http://www.viralvines.com/?p=1875#comment-123 Thanks again Raposo for the clarification. I too believe in tradition having worked and lived in different countries.  I do believe a good natural cork processed properly is an optimum closure for wine. My main "uneasiness" from the citied survey was that people seemed to believe that the closure itself  indicated the quality of the wine. While I believe a good natrual cork does provide optimum protection, it of itself does not ensure that the wine within the bottle is of high quality (although as you amply pointed out, a good wine demands optimum protection).  Thank you again for your thoughtful comments and thanks to all from Portugal who took the survey!

But it has to be of a good natural cork closure, (that means there are natural cork which quality is not so good, you should avoid those, as well). A good wine always demands (a natural and of good, excelent quality, as well!) a natural cork clousure. I will not recomend a very prestigious wine to have a plastique/synthetic screw caps. Like the good things, the way to do it, the good traditions, should not be jeopardized by something out of context, just simple as that. Hello Richard,

However, TCS is also "natural" but in this case something not desired. Make no mistake, I am not suggesting in any way that natural cork is not an excellent wine closure. My only "surprise" in the cited survey was that wine buyers would eliminate purchasing a wine based on the closure alone, which in my opinion does not indicate the quality of the wine within. I have experienced wines that were both excellent as well as poor under both closures. In any case, thanks for the comment! Obrigado Raposo … concordo.
