If still corked how does one know it tastes "bad/off"???
And why would it matter how stored during shipping, all wine is
positioned incorrectly during shipping (therefore by your logic all
wine is bad/off), but I'd not call the few days needed to ship
anywhere on the planet storage. Most liquor stores don't position
wine properly for storage yet it could be on the shelf for months...
could be in stock cartons for many months, even years. Unless
obviously leaking the only way to know a bottle is spoiled is to
uncork it... recorked is not corked.
