WSET Level 4 (WSET Diploma) Mastering Wine Faults Part 1 - Cork Taint [WSET Diploma Series]

[@piotrwojdelko1150]

Is there any solution to soak cork to prevent from happening ? like campden powder or sulfur...

[@narupanonngarmkham]

can you please help me to answer the situation I tried to open a wooden wine cork from a bottle of French rose but the cork was pushed down and floated inside the bottle. I have tasted the wine was not fault or lacking flavour but I am not sure the problem is form cork taint.

Hi - no this is a deteriorating cork that has lost its seal with the wine bottle. This will not cause a corked wine but more likely an oxidised wine

Hi Jimmy. Do you do any courses on faults where you have actual wines with each fault for students to get acquainted on? I did buy these wine aroma bix that has faults but i havent found it as useful to know for sure volatile acidity or brett. Thanks
