| Unfortunately, few restaurant customers know how to identify corkiness. |
| At the beginning of the 21st century, Michel Laroche was getting worried about the problem of corkiness in his wines. |
| The level of obviously corked wines may be small but a greater percentage of wines that have lost their flavours due to slight corkiness go unaccounted for. |
| Worse still is corkiness, a dank, moldy smell and taste from badly made corks. |
| The first sign of corkiness is a musty smell reminiscent of wet cardboard. |
| And a few seemed flawed, either by poor storage conditions, corkiness or bad winemaking. |
