“As the earth is to the vine so the cork is to the wine”

One of the most important factors in the successful sealing and subsequent maturing of wines is the cork closure. Stringent and ongoing quality control testing at every level of production … from raw material sources to the final inspection of the completed stoppers …. results in total quality assurance. Quality testing is performed by qualified scientists with graduate degrees in oenology, biology, and chemistry. The testing is performed in state-of-the-art laboratory facilities and, to insure objectivity and independence, testing is performed not only by Jelinek Cork Group in their own laboratories but confirmed by tests in independent laboratories as well. The elimination of microbiological development, including Trichloroanisole (TCA), is at the forefront of all Jelinek quality tests. Sophisticated sterilization and sanitation procedures during manufacturing as well as appropriate surface coatings ensure all stoppers are contaminant free. These procedures range from SO2 gassing to ozone treatment and gamma irradiation. Final packing in hermetically sealed heavy duty poly bags further ensures sterilized corks remain sterilized during transport. Smaller quantities of wine corks can be purchased online.

Wine Cork Types

There are several different types of wine corks available. Type selection is dependent on the type of wine being sealed and the expectant length of time before the wine is consumed. Other factors determining wine cork type selection and treatments include bottling speed, still or sparking wines, sweet or dry wines, red or white wines, bottle size and type. Jelinek Cork Group can recommend the best wine cork types, size, qualities, sterilizing, printing or branding, and surface treatments to ensure successful results.

These wine stoppers are manufactured in a consistent density meeting industry stopper technical specifications . They are a combination of agglomerated cork (forming the main body of the stopper) and natural cork (the ends of the agglomerated body are laminated with natural cork discs). The discs are available in several different qualities. The benefit of these highly technical stoppers is consistency of density, quality, function and price.
