Full-bodied dry red wine can be stored for 3-5 days, while light-bodied dry red wine can be stored for about 3 days.

How to keep it after opening a bottle and how to keep the wine for a longer time?

1. Re-seal

Put the cork back into the bottle exactly as it is, which is especially suitable for aged wine, especially if you don't want the dust and mold deposited on the outside of the cork to destroy the precious wine.

2. Refrigeration

A bottle is well sealed. If it is properly stored, it can be kept in the refrigerator for quite some time. A bottle of middle-class winery can be kept for a week or more. But you must remember to let the temperature of the wine rise to room temperature before drinking. Generally speaking, red wine lasts longer than white wine.

3. Use a small volumetric flask

If you have a small volumetric flask (such as 375ml), keep it. Pouring unfinished wine into a small wine bottle can reduce the contact surface between wine and air. A bottle of wine can usually be kept for several years if it is full of wine and uses a fresh and clean cork. One thing to remember is not to use detergent or detergent to wash small-capacity wine bottles, so as not to leave residual stains that will pollute the wine.

4. Upright

Oxygen is the enemy of wine. When storing a re-sealed bottle of wine, make sure that the bottle is in an upright position to minimize the contact between wine liquid and air.

5. Vacuum bottle stopper

Pumping air out of the bottle with a vacuum pump can help wine to keep longer. These accessories can usually be bought in supermarkets or wine shops. Of course, the air in the bottle is pumped out to reduce the contact between wine and air.

6. Pumping up

Injecting some inert gas can help protect the liquor from oxidation. Common devices can inject nitrogen and carbon dioxide into wine bottles. Inert gas covering the liquor can prevent air from entering, and this method can also be used to preserve the liquor in the decanter.
