I choose to drink honey wine/mead. My local producer uses beeswax stoppers which smell great and contain no plastic!

I lived in Portugal many years ago and got to climb a cork tree that was within a cork orchard. Cork is amazing! Another way to avoid plastic is to buy Portuguese ‘green’ wine, or ‘vinho verde’. It’s light, fizzy, and great tasting with any meal, or alone. I’ve bought it at Bevmo, but haven’t checked anywhere else – yet.

I have always been an advocate of cork. This has given me even more ammunition, and I'm definitely going to share it! .-= Irene King´s last blog ..The Gallery – My Other Passion =-.

Crisp white wines – how about a viognier? There are some that are sweet but they are mostly crisp and apple/pear without the oaky chardonnay taste.

I applaud anyone who is looks out and cares for God’s creation. Plastic corks don’t seem right. I hope this is not going to be a trend.

I heard on NPR that China is going to stop handing out plastic bags because it causes a lot of problems ( like clog drain pipes) and when you X that by a billion times that is a lot of plastic.

On the topic of plastic wine corks…I’ve given you a mention over at The Eco-Modernist. Great minds think alike as well since you previously posted over at another blog I have regarding saying NO to PVC shower curtains!
