Alternative wine closure

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a wine bottle with a cork in the top? That's called a traditional wine closure. But some people are starting to use something different called an alternative wine closure.

One type of alternative closure is a screw cap. You know how your water bottle has a cap that you twist to open and close it? A screw cap for wine is kind of like that. It's a lid that twists off the top of the bottle. Some people like it because it's easy to open and doesn't let air in, which can affect the taste of the wine.

Another type of alternative closure is called a synthetic cork. It looks like a traditional cork, but it's made out of plastic instead of tree bark. Some people like this because it's cheaper and doesn't have the same risk of spoilage that a traditional cork can have.

There are even some wines that come in a can instead of a bottle. These cans have a special lining inside that keeps the wine fresh and doesn't affect the taste.

So you see, while the traditional cork is still very popular, some people are starting to try out other ways to keep their wine fresh that might work even better!
