Make sure that the cork is not
falling apart or dried out.
Keeping opened bottles of
white wine
If tightly corked and
refrigerated, unfinished white wines should keep their flavors for up to
5 days.
Keeping opened bottles of red
wine
Unfinished red wines will
begin to degrade after 48 hours. You can extend this slightly by
refrigerating them too, remember to bring to room temperature before
serving.
:: Serving Wine ::
Serving wine
Wine glasses should be filled
halfway or less. This allows you to swirl it and helps revive the smell.
Choosing wine glasses
The best wine glasses are the
ones that have a shape that gets tighter at the top. This allows the
aromas to be trapped and funneled towards your nose for smell.
