corked
Plugged with bark stopper
Corked describes wine that has been contaminated by a faulty cork, giving it a musty, moldy taste.
A corked bottle is ruined regardless of quality or price: Send it back—it's corked.
Separately, corked means sealed with a cork, and in baseball slang, a corked bat has been illegally hollowed and filled with cork to make it lighter.
