Momma says life is like a box of chocolates...

But I think she was talking about TCA and not chocolates.

What’s your average of corked wines? I think I’m lucky, about 100 wines and only 2 of them were tainted by TCA.

Cheers,

Well... I also tend to be lucky... most ";corked"; wines I’ve tasted were not tasted at home ;)))

Paco, I opened one of the bottles that you gave me last month, Monje (maceración carónica), but the bottle was corked, I waited for a few minutes but, it doesn´t work.I found another reason to go to Spain soon. My rate of corked bottles are 1/150.

Well, if you’re going to visit us sooner because of a corked bottle.... this are not bad news... ;)))

Talking seriously... what a pity, this wine is very interesting, indeed!!

:((

Corked: about 1 in 20-25

Heat Damage: about the same or worse, particularly when I locate at a wine store something with a little bottle age.

I only had one real, clear, 100%, distinctive corkage in AAAALLLLL the wines I’ve tasted ... but then again, I surely am not very discriminating :-))

This restaurant was on the top of the Twin Towers (NYC), I don´t remember which tower. But : "; incidentally, out of 10,000 bottles of wine sold in a month, only about a dozen were rejected";.
1 in 25 is too much, 1 every two cases :-0

1 every 25 bottles... buff... astonishing! 8/

cheers,
