Lesson learned at great personal expense, grief and heartache.

Nearly Everything. Including Feel, Environmental, cost, taste of the hydrocarbons being outgassed into your wine, and just the terrible tackiness of trying to drink a very good bottle of wine that way...ugh..no thanks. (or for that matter scotch) I'd take a good Mason jar over the plastic anyday.
