How Long Can You Leave A Bottle of Red Wine Open?

en September 07, 2023

To get right to the point, red wine can last 1-5 days after being opened, with some variation based on the following factors. 

Here's a rough guideline:

  • Young, lighter red wines (e.g., Pinot Noir): 1-3 days
  • Young, fuller-bodied red wines (e.g., Cabernet Sauvignon): 3-5 days
  • Aged red wines: 1-2 days

It's important to note that these are general estimates, and individual wines may vary. Trust your senses – if the wine smells or tastes off, it's time to bid it farewell.

To maximize the lifespan of your opened bottle of Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon, consider these tips:

a. Use a wine stopper: Replace the cork or use a wine stopper specifically designed to remove excess air from the bottle.

b. Refrigerate: Storing your opened red wine in the fridge can slow down oxidation.

c. Repurpose leftovers: Use leftover wine for cooking, making sauces, or freezing it into ice cubes for future use.  

d. Choose the right bottle size: Smaller bottles leave less room for air, extending the wine's shelf life.

Final Notes

While red wine can be enjoyed over multiple days after opening, its shelf life is influenced by various factors, including the type of wine and storage conditions. To savor the flavors and aromas of your red wine for as long as possible, be mindful of these factors and follow the recommended tips for preserving your open bottle.  Let's cheers now to the three-day old Cab Sauv in our cups.

But what made the Cabrera gift stand out was how it diverged from the norm of players often being gifted Rolex watches from teams and teammates.   But Cabrera plays for the Tigers so it is likely that his team will be gifting the legend something more befitting of his stature in baseball history.   As for the bottle of Caymus he likely left in the opposing team's dugout after the game, here's hoping it finds its way back to the individual in the Athletics' front office who hatched this brilliance.
