Synthetic wine corks often fall short — both in terms of aesthetics and performance. Wine represents heritage, craftsmanship, and refinement, so why settle for less? A natural cork stopper is a far superior choice for sealing your bottles. It enhances presentation while providing a reliable seal that helps preserve the wine’s intended flavor profile. SELO1 and SELO2 corks were developed specifically for still wines — classic in design, dependable in quality, and cost-effective.

WHICH WINES ARE SELO1 AND SELO2 CORKS DESIGNED FOR?

SELO1 and SELO2 corks are ideal for still wines. If your wines are intended for short- to mid-term aging rather than extended cellaring, these corks provide an excellent solution. They’re especially well suited for young reds and crisp whites.

WHAT ARE SELO WINE CORKS MADE FROM?

SELO corks are crafted from natural cork granules sourced from the bark of cork oak trees. Cork is a renewable, sustainable material harvested without harming the tree. The natural cork used in SELO production is wine-safe, GMO-free, and contains no recycled fillers.

WHAT SIZE ARE THE SELO CORK STOPPERS?

Both SELO1 and SELO2 models measure 44 × 24 mm, making them suitable for standard still wine bottles.

HOW DO SELO1 AND SELO2 DIFFER?

The most noticeable difference is their shape and finish. SELO1 features a straight-sided cylindrical design, while SELO2 has gently rounded edges on the top and bottom for a softer profile.

There are also technical distinctions:

SELO1 absorbs up to 30% moisture, while SELO2 absorbs up to 40%. Even with this variation, both corks maintain low absorption levels, helping protect the wine’s original character.

SELO1 maintains a seal under pressure up to 2.5 bar, whereas SELO2 performs effectively up to 1.5 bar. These pressure tolerances are perfectly suited for non-carbonated wines.

SELO1 releases slightly lower levels of TCA (1.5 ng/L) compared to SELO2 (≤ 2.0 ng/L). For still wines not intended for long aging, this minimal difference has virtually no practical impact.

WHAT IS TCA AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?

TCA (trichloroanisole) is a naturally occurring compound that can sometimes cause what’s known as “cork taint.” While it poses no health risk, it may give wine an undesirable musty aroma or flavor. Simply put, the lower the TCA content in the cork, the lower the risk of flavor contamination. Every cork we offer is carefully screened to minimize TCA levels.

CAN SELO CORKS BE USED FOR SPARKLING WINES?

No. SELO corks are specifically engineered for still wines. For sparkling wines or champagne-style bottles, we recommend EXPO and VEGA cork models.

WHY CHOOSE NATURAL CORK OVER SYNTHETIC STOPPERS?

Natural cork remains the gold standard in winemaking. It allows micro-oxygenation — a subtle exchange of air that supports proper aging and flavor development. Synthetic corks create an airtight barrier, which can hinder the wine’s natural maturation process.

In addition, natural cork is free from chemical additives that may be present in some plastic alternatives. It’s a safe, time-tested choice trusted by wineries worldwide.

HOW SHOULD BOTTLES WITH NATURAL CORK BE STORED?

Store bottles on their side so the cork remains in contact with the wine. This prevents drying and maintains flexibility. Ideally, wine should be kept in a cool, dark environment between 50–59°F (10–15°C), with humidity around 70% to preserve cork integrity over time.

DO NATURAL CORKS DECAY?

No. Natural cork has inherent antimicrobial properties and naturally resists moisture, making it highly durable inside the bottle.

WILL NATURAL CORKS CRUMBLE OVER TIME?

When stored properly, natural cork remains resilient and intact. Its elasticity ensures a tight seal for years.

For best results, always store wine bottles horizontally. Keeping the cork moist prevents brittleness and maintains long-term performance.

Natural cork lets wine perform at its peak. Unlike plastic closures that can interfere with flavor and block proper oxygen exchange, real cork creates the ideal environment for balanced aging. That’s why the SELO line is a smart, dependable choice – cost-effective without sacrificing performance.

#1 PREMIUM LOOK AND AUTHENTICITY

A bottle sealed with natural cork immediately signals craftsmanship. Compared to synthetic stoppers, genuine cork enhances the perceived quality and heritage of the wine.

Plastic closures may appear budget-friendly, but they lack the refined, traditional appeal of real cork. For premium and boutique wines alike, presentation matters — and the closure is part of that first impression.

When opening a bottle at dinner or a tasting event, natural cork reinforces the sense of quality and intention. Those subtle cues elevate the entire wine experience.

#2 TRADITION MEETS EXPERIENCE

Natural cork isn’t just functional — it’s part of the ritual of opening and enjoying wine. The gentle twist of the corkscrew and the familiar pop create anticipation and atmosphere.

That small moment sets the stage for a memorable tasting experience, where aromas unfold and flavors develop with every sip.

#3 A SUSTAINABLE CHOICE

Choosing natural cork means supporting responsible sourcing. Cork harvesting protects Mediterranean ecosystems in countries such as Portugal and Spain and does not require cutting down trees. The bark naturally regenerates, making cork a renewable resource.

The cork industry also sustains local communities and preserves generations of traditional craftsmanship. It’s an environmentally sound option with meaningful social impact.

By selecting natural cork, you’re not only safeguarding your wine — you’re contributing to environmental stewardship. A small decision with long-term benefits.

#4 CONSISTENT QUALITY AND PROTECTION

Our closures are produced from larger granules of natural cork, delivering structural integrity and long-lasting performance. They contain no recycled fillers and no genetically modified organisms (GMO), ensuring purity and reliability.

Precisely engineered dimensions provide a secure fit in the bottle neck, minimizing unwanted oxygen exposure. This helps preserve the wine’s authentic flavor profile and aromatic complexity.

#5 VALUE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

The SELO range offers an efficient balance between quality and cost. You don’t need to pay premium prices to benefit from genuine natural cork. True value lies in dependable performance.

SELO delivers consistent sealing power and protection at a competitive price point. Professional-grade reliability without unnecessary extras.

#6 DURABLE AND CLEAN OPENING

A crumbling cork can quickly spoil the moment. Thanks to its natural elasticity, real cork maintains its structure during removal.

Unlike lower-grade alternatives that may split or leave residue behind, our corks are designed for smooth, controlled extraction. No debris in the glass — just a clean pour and uninterrupted enjoyment.
