I'm not sure the screw top is as bad as you guys are making it out to be. There is a *lot* of mainstream wine in Oz (not just cheap stuff) that is being produced with a screw top lid. I hardly cellar things for too long, but if a majority of wine is being bottled without a cork, it can't be that bad for the wine. This area is certainly changing - there has also been quite a few wines recently 'corked' with synthetic corks - the local discussions have actually been that they may be *better* than cork as they won't rot...
