Episode 10 - How Long Does Wine Keep Once It’s Opened

Today’s episode covers one of the most commonly asked questions regarding wine - How long does an opened bottle of wine last? We’ve all ended up with a half-empty bottle of wine at some point and wondered, “Is this worth keeping?” or even, “Is this safe to drink?” 

Erin will answer all your questions about this topic while diving into the specifics behind the science of oxidation, how different types of closures work, and which wine styles hold their flavor profile the longest. 

You can both see and taste when time alters a wine’s structure and in this episode, you’ll learn exactly how to do that. Erin also has some great tips to share about cooking with leftover wine and how to use extra wine in punch, sangria, or mulled wine. This is definitely an episode you don’t want to miss!
