REVIEWS SCREWED FOR GOOD: The swing toward finishing

wines with screw caps is nearing a tipping point in Australia and

New Zealand, where prominent wineries are adopting the

technology in ever better wines. If screw caps win the day

worldwide, Tyson Stelzer's book will have chronicled a turning

point. And I will be standing in my cellar, applauding. - Wine
