Today is a Dracaena Wines on Wine installment and I am honored to have interviewed Peter Weber, President of the Cork Quality council.
The Cork Quality Council is a nonprofit organization founded to promote education and improve quality assurance performance for the wine and cork industries. We discuss the biology behind a cork tree, how cork is produced and that nasty little thing we all are familiar with, cork taint. Through this council, research has been performed to help improve the quality of cork.
On their website, www.corkqc.com, you can find out more about sustainability, the cork forests, cork harvesting and production and wine aging.
According to 100% Cork, "While the relationship between wine and cork is rooted in centuries of tradition, and the romance and rituals that have evolved around opening a bottle of wine are treasured by wine lovers everywhere, winemakers are above all about making great tasting wines, and the simple fact is, and the simple fact is, cork makes wine taste better.
