Not Quite....
A wine is 'corked' when a 'bad' cork transfers its aroma and taste to the wine. The cork will taste and smell mouldy and dank, usually through a mould infection or a chemical reaction. Can happen to any Material used to seal the bottle not just organic material!

could actually happen to screw top aswell... it is normally the seal or not enough steralisation during bottling that does it :)
