preserving wine after opening bottle
i end up throwing more than half a bottle of wine after opening it as we rarely finish a bottle between me and SO. any way to save it for next week ? stoppers dont seem to work.
What kind of stopper are you using? They make ones that inject an inert gas to ensure oxygen doesn’t get in to ruin the wine.
Light weight. Drink it the next day? Why wait a week?
One week is almost impossible.... the best I feel is three days. Yet the taste starts drifting. Best stopper? A friend(s)
A friend's.....butt plug?
There is a $200 device with a needle that you can buy to extract wine from a bottle without removing the cork. It’s kind slow to use though. Restaurants use this to be able to serve one glass of an expensive bottle of wine without opening the bottle.
Buy cans of wine
Vacuum stopper to suck most of the air out, keep in refrigerator to slow down bacteria growth. Keeps for 3-6 days

Vacuum stopper works well. Although, I wouldn’t recommend storing red wine in the refrigerator (maybe ok for white wine). For red wine I would recommend storing it at room temperature and finishing it in 1-2 days, after sealing it with the vacuum stopper.
Just buy boxed wine
Search amazon for Vacu Vin. That’s the best selling one and works well. I have them and also saw them used at a nice bar tonight.
Use a Coravin. Problem solved.
If TC is good throw it out. If it isn't drink more.
Lol!
