From America 'baffled' by screwcaps:
While screwcaps are being used increasingly, America's wine industry is baffled about their future.
Depending on who is asked, screwcaps are 'poised on the edge of phenomenal success' or are 'comfortably settling into a niche status,' according to Wine Business Monthly's annual closure research.
'The most adventurous and savviest wine consumers have seemingly embraced the closure, while traditional and less wine-educated consumers still seem unsure of what to do,' the California trade publication said.
Its survey of 237 domestic and foreign wineries showed that respondents using screwcaps increased from 5% in 2004 to 25% in 2007, the publication reported.
