Alternative wine closures

Synthetic corks
A synthetic cork is designed to look and function like natural corks
Synthetic corks from plastic compounds designed to look and "pop" as the natural cork, but without the risk of TCA contamination. Disadvantages of some synthetic wine stoppers are a risk of harmful air into a bottle after only 18 months, and the difficulty of its removal from the bottle and cork with plastic to cover the wine. James Laube of Wine Spectator notes that some also may impart a chemical taste to the wine light.
Unlike natural corks, synthetic wine corks are made from many non-biodegradable material, but either recycled as # 4 or # 7 (see the identification code resin) in many communities. There are two main techniques for the production of synthetic wine closures: injection molding and extrusion (mono-and co-). Also says there are methods that combine the two techniques of injection and extrusion. A 2007 study by Victor Segalen Bordeaux 2 University showed that injection molded synthetic closure allowed the highest levels of oxygen permeability compared to the natural resources cork and screw caps, with the least protection against oxidation of the wine. A new generation of injection molding of synthetic corks have developed a nano-system cells to replicate to perfection the cellular structure of natural cork and exactly duplicating the permeability values of high quality one-piece natural cork stoppers.,
Screw tapas
Main article: screw cap
Stelvin cap removed
Screw caps or Stelvin caps "are closures made only of material aluminum wires in the bottleneck. They are the dominant end use by New Zealand wineries. This can be attributed in part to the initiative of New Zealand cap thread, which promotes the use of screw caps instead of cork. screw caps form a tighter seal and may prevent from oxygen for a long time the cork. These assistance benefits in maintaining the global wine quality and aging potential. Michel Laroche of Domaine Laroche noted that this played a role in his decision adopting screw caps. "Extensive quality tests show convincing results: in addition to protecting against cork taint, screw caps are also beneficial in aging of wine, particularly preserving the aromatic freshness. "
A contradiction often cited is the case of experiments carried out by Château Haut-Brion, in the 1970s, when 100 bottles were placed in screw cap for long-term observation. The result was, as Haut-Brion, Jean-Bernard Delmas, who "worked to the perfection of the first ten years, until the plastic caps was fragile and the air. "
One disadvantage of screw caps, according to experts Jancis Robinson wine is the opposite of oxidation, reduction, which can suppress the aroma of a wine unpleasant and possibly cause a problem that particularly affects Sauvignon blanc is a grape variety with a natural tendency towards reduction. Moreover, there is the image of the screw cap, as consumers still perceive as stoppers thread for 'cheap' wines (regardless of the cost). "
In a 2004 survey of opinions of consumers conducted by consulting wine wine Intelligence found that almost 52% of U.S. consumers and 60% of UK consumers reject the idea of using screw caps for its wines. In 2007, Victor Segalen Bordeaux University study showed that closing screw caps allowed the least amount of oxygen permeation in comparison with natural and synthetic corks, that offer the highest level of protection against oxidation of the wine.
Following the studies conducted by clinical failures in September International Wine Challenge 2006, was widely reported in the British press that the results show that one in 50 bottles with screw cap, 200,000 bottles worldwide, may be affected by the chemical desulphurization process, resulting in a failure in which a consumer is "faced with the stench of sulfur - Compared to burning rubber or rotten eggs - instead an attractive bouquet. "Jamie Goode presented arguments against the reports described as" represent science of closures wrong, are full of inaccuracies and misunderstandings, and do not serve the wine industry well, "and went to the uncertainties at specific points.
Vino-Seal
Glass-Stopper compared corkstopper
Vino-Seal, or Vino-Lok is a plastic / glass seal launched by Alcoa. Since its introduction in the European market in 2003, more 300 wineries have used Vino-Seal. The use of a glass stopper with an inert or in the ring, Vino-Seal creates a tight seal that prevents oxidation and contamination TCA. A disadvantage with the Vino-Seal is the relatively high cost of each plug (70 cents each) and the cost of manual packaging, due to lack of compatible equipment outside bottling Europe. The design has won an Award of Excellence for packing Worldstar the World Packaging Organization.
Zork
A bottle of wine sealed with a Zork
Invented by Conor McKenna and developed by John Brooks in Adelaide, South Australia, Zork is an alternative wine closure that seals like a screw cap and appears like a cork. The closure Zork is composed of three parts, one outer cover to provide a tamper evident clamp that fits the European band CETI cork a bottle of standard mouth, a sheet metal provides an internal oxygen barrier similar to a screw cap and an internal piston that creates the op in the extraction and sealed after use.
Crown caps
Corona close the lid of a sparkling wine.
The traditional crown bottle cap has been used in the sparkling wine industry, such as closed during the fermentation process bottle (mthode traditionnelle). Normally, the cap is replaced with a cork before shipping, although recently some producers are releasing wines by crown cover their closure. Crown caps provide a tight seal without the risk of cork spot. Although easier to open, remove the plates from the ceremony and mysticism the opening of a sparkling wine.
Opposition
There is a continuing opposition to the use of alternative closures in parts of the wine industry. In March 2006, the Spanish government banned the use of alternative wine closures in 11 wine producing regions of Spain as part of their (Denomination of Origin) DO regulations.
Opposition because of the environmental impact of synthetic corks is also growing, as non-biodegradable synthetic stoppers such as cork, but the main reason is that the cork "farms" have a high biodiversity and some species are unique to the cork-producing areas, however with reduced commercial demand for cork, many of these farms are being removed to more profitable crops.
