I actually would rather synthetic or screw tops, but I'm mostly into whisk(e)y not wine. Corks can fail way more than other options. I do like a nice cork pop though.

Plus cork taint is no fun (yes, that happens with whiskey too, it's a myth it can't)

Also another down side of spirits being capped with a cork is that at higher ABVs they can slowly disolve the cork ... (Not sure when that starts to happen, but I believe 40% ABV can)
