Can you return if corked? Because BV suffered from systemic TCA in the
winery from basically '97-'00. Lots of discounts, because high
percentage show TCA (and probably many others are "fruit scalped."
The BV GdlT has a very honorable history, but I personally would not
chance this unless the price is incredibly discounted (like under $20).
