Description

Is corked wine actually better than screw cap? Mark from New Jersey — who calls himself "Cheap Drunk" — phones in with a question his lady has been giving him grief about, and Forrest Kelly along with Sour Grapes sets the record straight. The truth is, screw caps aren't a sign of a cheap wine — they're a sign of a smart winery. From the history of cork to the very real problem of cork taint, this episode breaks down one of wine's most persistent myths in classic Best 5 Minute Wine Podcast fashion: fast, funny, and completely on your side. @thebestwinepodDiscover More from The Best 5 Minute Podcast Network:Wine PodcastMusic PodcastTravel Podcast Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
