Description

A standard length and diameter single punch cork in a high quality grading at a reasonable price. Corks are typically graded on a scale of 1-10, 1 being the best score, based on the degree of porousness that the actual punch of cork exhibits. Cork trees that show a higher population of worms or fungi tend to yield cork crops which are more porous. The Grade 3 corks show less than average porousness and are on par with the quality of cork used in many commercial facilities. Grade 1 & 2 corks are almost completely solid and sell at very high prices.


These corks are harvested and punched in Portugal, like the majority of the rest of the corks available today. They are processed, sorted, prepped and packaged here in Northern California.

What is the diameter of these corks? Are they #8 or #9? I have some tight-necked bottles. Thanks!
Greg Stricker on Jan 19, 2021
BEST ANSWER: Greg. I think they are #9 . I have been using these corks for a few years with no problems. I recycle my wine bottles so I have used them in numerous bottles. I will continue to use them. Jimmy
How long do unused corks last?
Doug Bauer on Nov 11, 2022
BEST ANSWER: Indefinite. But they dry out and can pick up mold if improperly stored. Keep them sealed and away from chlorine products. Some people hang them from a bag in a sealed bucket over SO2 in the bottom. I mist with SO2 and reseal my bag. Good Winemaking!

Great corks- did the job perfectly!
Worked like a charm. Used a floor corker. I would use a smaller diameter cork if using a small hand corker.

Good Corks for the Home Winemaker
Just bottled the 2021 vintage and had previously used the same corks for 2020. They seem to be working just fine and are reasonably priced for the home winemaker.

Cork Taint - 1 out of 7
Overall they seem fine, but, unfortunately I have found that they have developed cork taint.
I wouldn't buy them again.

These corks appear to be of very good quality and should provide very good protection to our wines.

Very nice corks
These natural corks are of good quality, and provide a tight, safe seal. You do need a floor corker to insert them into your bottles. I have never had a wine bottle leak, even when stored cork-side down.

I prefer them over the synthetic cork closures.
Natural corks are biodegradable, and often, can be repurposed. There are a few retailers near me that have collection boxes for used natural corks, which are then used in the making of other cork-enhanced products.

I appreciate being able to reduce the number of synthetic corks that go into the trash and landfills.

Good corks
These worked well, the only advice I would give is to inspect them before inserting. I was going too fast and got one that leaked because I didn't inspect it to see how many holes were in it and how they aligned. Overall I'm satisfied.
