Right, we now have clean, fined and filtered wine. We pour it into clean (yes and sterilised) bottles with a funnel. We need to cork it. Its possible to put corks in with a mallet. I use a corking gun and waxed corks that do not need to be soaked (plain corks do)

A cork is loaded into the channel shown below.

The gun is placed on the neck of the wine bottle and the cork gently eased into the neck a couple of mils

Finally the arms are pulled into the horizontal position driving the cork smoothly into the neck of the bottle
