Agglomerated Wine Corks #9 x 1.75" – Reliable Closures for Short-Term Aging

Versatile Corks for Everyday Wines, Meads & Ciders

These agglomerated wine corks are a dependable, budget-friendly choice for everyday bottling projects and short- to medium-term aging. Made from high-quality granulated cork, they provide a consistent seal in standard 750 mL wine bottles, helping protect your wine, mead, or cider while it conditions and matures in the cellar.

Each cork measures #9 x 1.75" (23mm x 44mm), a standard size for most still wine bottles. Sold as a single product with multiple variants, you can choose between convenient 25 count and 100 count packs to match the size of your bottling run.
