Poll of TR Staff:  The Capsule-less Option

The vast majority of wineries -- worldwide, domestic and Finger Lakes -- who bottle their wines with corks put a capsule (also called "foil") over the top of the bottle that is removed before pulling the cork.

- 2020 Blaufränkisch Nouveau Style

How would you foresee a majority of customers responding if all our wines were capsule-less?
Indifferent
Supportive, due to less waste and envi impact
Supportive, due to improved "looks" of the package
Opposed, due to (unfounded) concern over impact on quality
Opposed, due to a poorer "look" of the packaging
