All Plastic Polystoppers - pack of 25
£1.80 More information -
Commercial Size - pack of 50
£6.00More information
If you are looking to retain your wine beyond 18 months then consider these corks.
They are natural & agglomerate standard quality corks but are larger (44x24mm) than the normal corks (38x22mm) & thus provide a tighter seal which will assist in minimising the risk of oxidation of your wine.
They do not need soaking other than in a weak solution of sterilant, and definitely require a powerful corker such as a floor standing model to insert them.
In this regard choose a corker with brass or metal plates, so that the process is a easy as possible & you obtain the maximum wear from the equipment. -
Finest Quality - Silicone Treated Corks
from £2.20More information
These natural wine bottle corks are of the standard size, 38mm by 22mm, used by home winemakers. They have not been filled. They have been washed in a hydrogen peroxide solution that disinfects and cleans deep into the cork. They have then been wax-treated to seal in the moisture, to protect the surface and to make them easier to insert into the bottle. For the best results we recommend that these are not soaked and that they are inserted using a good quality corker such as the Easy, Gilda or a Floor Standing model.
