If the cork of the wine is not cleaned, it will breed the fungus, which will produce a substance that will destroy the taste of the wine: TCA. TCA-contaminated wines (called corked wine) have a damp basement, damp newspapers, and the smell of falling dogs, and have a flat taste with almost no fruit flavor.

As wines are popular all over the world, cork producers who are overwhelmed are inevitably missing. Although only a small number of cork will be polluted, and many people can't even taste the taste of TCA, wine experts shouted "cork crisis". It is worth mentioning that cork-contaminated wine is actually harmless to the human body.

While some people are showing their own efforts to detect the pollution of fine cork and the manufacturers of screw caps are delighted, some people are trying to save the corked wine.

Recently, scientists at the University of California, Davis, said they found a way to remove cork contamination. Put a polyethylene plastic such as plastic wrap in a container, but pour the wine and shake it, soak it for 15 minutes and pour it into another container.

They say that TCA will stick to the plastic, thus eliminating the odor in the wine.
