I drank wine or a beer daily, but some years ago I lost the taste for it, also could not deal with the alcohol as good as before, I got a headache already after half a glass of beer or wine.

I then switched to things I did not like before, but combining two dislikes added for one very pleasant like, strnagely. I never liked white beer, or alcohol-free beer - but I exclusively like alcohol-free white beer these days, Erdinger Weißbier. And I happened to be unimpressed by whte wine, and absolutely disliked sweet wine: but now I strongly like an Italian daily-use wine that is not only white but fruity and sweet like freshly picked and squeezed table grapes. Ice-cold, and mixed with one third to one half of ice water, it is most delicious a drink, especially in Summer.

And it comes in - ehem, tetrapacks. Pardon the heresy.

And twice or three times a year, a small glass of Dalwhinnie.

Else, for wine in bottles, corks made of plastic are the way to go, as Catfish said. If you like the style of corks. Personally I could not care any less for whether it has a plastic cork or a screw cap.
