  • Inserted by hand, so there is no extra equipment to buy
  • Easy to remove and reuse for decanting or short-term storage
  • Also useful for sealing sample bottles and small jars

Good to know

Because they are tapered, these corks do not grip as tightly as a straight cork driven in with a corker. They are a good choice for wine that will be drunk early; for wine you want to lay down, use straight corks and a corker instead.

How to use

Rinse the corks in warm water, fill your sanitised bottles and press a cork firmly into each neck with a twisting action. Store bottles upright.

Bottling regularly? See Wine Corks 1000 Pack (All Grades) for the bulk pack. Ideal for beginners and for wine that will be enjoyed within the year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a corker for tapered corks?

No. Tapered corks are designed to be pushed in by hand, so no corker is needed.

Are tapered corks good for long-term storage?

They do not seal as tightly as straight corks, so they are best for wine that will be drunk early. Use straight corks and a corker for wine you want to age.

How many corks are in the pack?

There are 100 tapered corks in each pack.

Can I reuse them?

Because they are pushed in and pulled out by hand rather than compressed, they can often be rinsed and reused for things like samples or decanted wine.
