True
Maybe it's even part of some wine/wood interaction
Screw caps may be ok but they certainly look cheap.
I'm not convinced low-end corks are better than synthetic cork (in the case of some aging), and maybe the technology improves, leaving the solid corks to the expensive wines.
Supermarkets in France sell corks, I remember seeing them split by aging time, from 1,2 years up to around 20 years
