Hello, I am relative new to wine-making - only with a few kits and home-made fruit wines under my belt. I am getting to a point where I would like to make some of the higher end wine kits, with more juice/all-juice so I can start to age them between 5-10 years.
I have heard that synthetic corks don't allow for breath-ability unlike natural corks, however, when I was at my local wine-making store the other week, the reps there said that the synthetics are porous and do allow for breath-ability.
Which is true? Are there different grades of synthetics corks?
Thanks.
