Non-alcoholic wines can absolutely be corked. TCA (Trichloroanisole)—also known as “cork taint”—in wine is the result of a complex chemical reaction between mold, chlorine and plant phenols. Alcohol has no effect on the reaction. You can even detect TCA when you buy certain fruits and vegetables, like baby carrots.
