These microagglomerated corks are a simple and high quality option for sealing your wine. Through a proprietary process there is a removal of all TCA, which is responsible for "cork taint". Agglomerated corks are made from small cork pieces held together with a food grade binder. These corks are recommended for wines aged up to 3 years. The 22 mm diameter eases the corking process if using a hand corker. 22mm X 38mm, #8 x 1.5". These are slightly smaller than your standard cork, which makes them our recommended cork when using a hand corker.
Italy produces more wine than any country in the world and Molinas is the largest Italian cork supplier with over 1 billion corks produced annually. Molinas Cork was started over 100 years ago by Pietro Molinas on the Italian island of Sardinia. Besides its beautiful beaches and designation as one of the world's five Blue Zones, Sardinia is known for its large, government protected Cork tree forests.
Today, the 4th generation of the Molinas family sustainably harvests cork from these protected trees. Compared to most cork available in the market, the bark is allowed to mature an additional year. This leads to a less porous, higher quality cork, and has less impact on the forest. Throughout the entire process from tree to finished cork, quality control is strictly monitored. MoreFlavor! is proud to represent Molinas Cork in the USA.
