“RT @designrobyn: Wine lovers like @thirstforwine beware: RT @factable You are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider”

“@enotriauk I agree that wine packaging is not key consumer message, but there needs to be some balance in the universe of pro-cork messages”

“@ElsiePR exactly my point. We criticise cork PR and media that reprint it (w/out thought), but they are not being balanced by other messages”

“@ElsiePR not about fairness. Not that hard to update, or take down old sites. Lots of criticism of cork push, but where is response?”

“RT @guyawoodward: Natural Cork lobby slapping 'Protect the Planet' flyers on car windscreens at Vinexpo. Maybe start by not wasting paper on annoying flyers?”

“@WillsWine interesting, though the flying cork might get lost in smaller sizes. Not sure of typeface though”

“@WineBusProf interesting comparison (cork vs tobacco). Fair? More like FA endorsing football boots. Where's impartiality & big picture?”

“There are merits & occasions for cork as well as other closures, but is it not odd to have sommeliers take sides? ”

“@beverleynorman not a general problem. Easiest is to remove the wire, then hold the cork and turn the bottle! Cheers!”

“If cork needs a corkscrew, what does a screwcap need #screwscrew ”

“I'm disappointed by the fact that while I was defending cork tonight, my own wine was suffering from traces of TCA :(”
