Set of 25 Italian made champagne corks with 25 matching wire hoods, designed for securing sparkling wine and champagne style bottles. Ideal for home sparkling wine, cider and mead, this kit provides a complete closure system for properly finished, wired bottles.
North Mountain Supply champagne corks and wire hoods give you a complete closure solution for sparkling wine and other carbonated beverages bottled under pressure. Made in Italy, this set includes 25 champagne corks and 25 matching wire hoods, for a total of 25 cork and hood pairs ready to use.
Champagne corks are specifically shaped and formulated for sparkling applications. When used with appropriate bottles and correct bottling practices, they help:
Maintain carbonation and pressure inside the bottle
Provide a classic mushroom style sparkling closure
Support proper storage and presentation of champagne, sparkling wine, cider and similar beverages
These corks can be used with standard champagne style or sparkling wine bottles that are designed to handle carbonation and have the proper neck and finish for champagne corks.
Each cork pair is completed by a matching wire hood (also called a muselet). The wire hood is placed over the cork after it has been inserted and is then twisted down around the bottle lip to lock the cork in place. This step is essential for safety and performance, because the wire hood:
Helps secure the cork against internal bottle pressure
Reduces the risk of the cork working loose during storage
Creates the familiar wire cage look associated with sparkling wines

Follow standard sparkling bottling procedures, pressure guidelines and safety practices to ensure that the bottles, corks and hoods perform properly over time.
