NDTECH
Whole natural cork, punched from the highest-grade natural cork bark. The result is natural cork with a smooth surface and consistent natural elasticity, fundamental for a seamlessly reliable performance from one cork to the next.
Ideal for vintage wines with cellaring up to 30 years, which require optimum ageing and maturation in the bottle.
Naturity cleansing technology ensuring natural cork’s maximum sensory neutrality.
Amorim’s pioneering process is entirely natural and makes use of thermal desorption through pressure variation to separate and extract volatile non-structural compounds that can cause sensory deviations.
Sealing Verification System (SVE) screening, a process that validates each cork’s tightness. NDTECH fast chromatography high precision screening technology, a quality control process that ensures each natural cork with releasable TCA ≤0.5 ng/L.
