Today’s question was sent in by Myriam who asks “Was wine discovered or invented?”.
Jeremy guess that wine was accidently discovered. Somebody left some fruits in a bucket or in a jar and when they went back they said “Damn that’s good fruit! There is something going on here”.
Then people learn to manage the process, evolve the process and make wine the experience wine that it is today.

Today’s question was sent in from Pierre from Versailles (France) who asks “Can we offer a second chance to corked wines, for cooking or making your own vinegar?”.
The answer is NO. Once a wine is corked it is forever gone.
There is nothing you can do about it and with it. Corked wine is a wine which has been contamined by a vegetal component called TCA.
There is a rule with wine in cooking which is: never cook with a wine you would not drink yourself because it will convey negative flavors.
It is the same thing for vinegar. You should not do vinegar with corked wine.
The best wines can be corked even if you store them properly.
To go further:
A ‘Corked’ wine is a wine that has been bottled with a cork that is contaminated with TCA (2,4,6-Trichloroanisole). TCA contamination usually comes from corks but can also come from barrels, other cooperage or even, apparently, from wood within the cellar including walls or beams. The term ‘corked wine’ is applied to all wines with TCA contamination because corks are the souce of most of the problems. The wine industry estimates that as many as 3% to 7% of all wines have TCA contamination at levels that can be detected by consumers. Because most people are not trained to recognize the smell and taste of TCA, only a very small fraction of these bad bottles are ever returned to stores or sent back at a restaurant.
[...]
TCA does not pose a health risk (at least in the levels found in wines). It just imparts the aromas and flavors that are objectionable when found in sufficient quantity. Many wines have levels of TCA that are below the threshold of perception. Wine is not the only place you can find TCA. It is also found in some municipal water supplies as well as in some teas.
