Wine’s cork vs screw cap argument has been running hot for a while now. PKN first discussed the topic in 2012.

And, of course, urban myths have woven themselves into the ideas that both camps are promulgating. So Wine Turtle’s Tim Edison decided, “to add our 2 cents to the conversation as well.”

Wine Turtle carried out a survey of 114 participants to find out what people really do think.

And what is that?

“According to our survey, many still hold a prejudice against the screw cap as a result of a number of myths…”

…which opens a whole new discussion: Are those myths true or not? Join in that conversation here.
