Was the Drouhin Laforet white, or have they switched the red, too?

Yesterday almost half the wines opened at a party were not bark or bark imitation:
Screwcap:
2005 Wild Rock "the Infamous Goose" Sauvignon Blanc -NZ
2006 Loosen "Dr. L" Riesling QbA -Germany
2006 Stringtown Rose Oregon
Plus 2006 Berger Gruner Veltliner -crowncap!

Hoke - Is Syncline in your screwcap list? They are also using glass corks now, and no tree bark.

Thanks, Laura.

Hard to spot the VinoLok closures, so sometimes I'm not aware of them. I do know that Schloss Vollrads does VinoLok though. Nice to know about Syncline.
