This may be one of my shortest posts, ever. The evidence is in. Which makes a better wine bottle closure: the screw cap or the cork? According to Ron Jackson and his remarkable Wine Science text book, it really doesn’t matter. Cork is used primarily because of tradition, not because it makes the wine age better or any other hullabaloo. This has been verified by countless other people who actually spend time scientifically measuring this sort of thing.
Got it?
IT’S SCIENCE!!!!!!!
