Description
Since always, this little dedicated and familiar cylinder sounds like a cheerful call that brings guests to it. Due to its natural origin, ancient history, and effectiveness in preserving wine, the cork stopper holds a significant place in our culture. However, the interest in it diminishes as soon as it is removed, rolling under palms, on tablecloths, and zinc surfaces. Typologie has delved into this omnipresent object and gives it all the attention its beauty deserves in the dedicated issue. It explores the cork culture in the cork oak forests of Portugal, its artisanal harvesting, and addresses the challenges of an industry that subtly blends machinery and handwork. It questions the object in its use and its role in wine aging. Through reading this issue, the reader will understand the reason for their attachment to this consumable and discover its importance in the ritual of wine tasting.
