I think that comes down to a style preference. If you prefer Australian and New Zealand wines then you happen to be in luck since they use screwcaps a lot. Most Aussie wine is not in my wheelhouse however and I don't know much about the ageability of NZ wines.

So I continue to pull corks and it continues to not bother me.

I think we need to wait another 10 or 20 years before we have much evidence one way or another on this topic. Until then the jury is out...
