It's on a bottle of wine!

If you can't open it then you shouldn't be drinking it!

Wine is normally corked, a natural thing to do is look for a corkscrew.

What is the drama?

Probably because it's on a bottle of wine which is normally associated with corks. Stop buying cheap wine.

It's blatantly obvious that it's a screw top.

Got no beef, just found it amusing that is all.

I've never done it with wine but I've hunted for a bottle opener many a time when I've had crates of Miller screwtops

Those on the other hand are deceiving! Without actually trying to twist you would never know!

My nan pierced a screw top bottle of wine with a corkscrew one year at Christmas. I would take the piss out of her but I can't cause she's dead.

I think it's more to cover themselves from people suing them for an 'injury'.

Easy to tell the difference.

If your backing up the need for that written on there then you are clearly stupid.

Colin clearly knows where I'm coming from

i think they are just using 'corked' as its a word they associate with wine thats off/bad.

It doesnt need to be cork sealed to be off.... it can happen in the barrel for example

But it does need to be cork to have bits of cork floating in it

Nup it shows you the optimum way to wash your hands in 10 steps. My companies a bit overkill on stuff like this though!!

Theres signs on the back of toilet doors reminding you to wipe away any shit debris & to wash your hands also!!
