This is very good news.
The world’s largest cork producer announced a major enhancement to its production process that it claims has reduced the amount of TCA and other sensory contaminants to levels below accepted sensory thresholds.
Following the enhancements of its production processes in Portugal, Amorim plans to deliver 350 million corks by the end of the year that it can guarantee are free of TCA or other impurities that could compromise a wine.

I would say yes because most tawny’s are composite T-corks. But overall I’d say it benefits all.
