How to Drink Better: After a day or two, most wines will start to lose their vibrancy but some last better than others
wines
Some wines keep their freshness better than others, but as a general rule your open bottle will keep for one to three days without losing all of those lovely flavours provided you replace the cork or screw cap. After a day or two, most wines will start to lose their vibrancy. Some may develop sharp vinegar-like flavours after a week or two.
White and rosé wines should be stoppered with the original cork or screw cap and should last two to three days. I find red wines keep three to five days if they are stoppered and kept in a cool place. I often keep them in the fridge. Sweet wines last longer than most wines. I often keep a bottle in the fridge, dipping in for a small glass every night. It still tastes great a week later.
