Cork & Sustainability
Here at The Classic Cork, we are passionate about enjoying a glass (or bottle) of wine. We are also passionate about helping sustain our environment as well as being responsible consumers. For that reason, we support xxx with helping to educate the wine-drinking public about the true facts around using natural corks in wine.
Contrary to recent popular belief, artificial or cork alternatives are NOT actually better for the sustainability of our environment.
The good people at Cork Forest Conservation Alliance (CFCA) are working to change this public opinion and educate consumers.
