I have recently started to make my own wine. So far I have only used kits. My problem is my corks are getting stuck in the bottle. When I try to open a bottle it's just stuck solid and the more I pull it just breaks the cork. Is there anything I can do to avoid this
 
As far as I'm aware they are the correct size. The bottles and corks we purchased from the same supplier at the same time. These were the only size corks they did
 
Once I have bottled the wine I stand them for three days then they are stored on their side
 
The cork screw is going in far enough. Infact I bought a new one thinking that was the problem
