How to use "Corked" in context?

The very sound of the cork popping can be quite satisfying, but when it happens in wine, it's called corked. Corking can be caused by a variety of different things, but the most common culprit is air bubbles that get trapped in the cork during fermentation. These bubbles don't just happen over time, they can often bubble to the surface and pop, thankfully without damaging the wine too much. Corked wines usually have an unpleasant smell and a faintly acrid taste.
