For a wine enthusiast, it’s a pity to leave bottles of red wine unfinished, which happens quite frequently after parties. It would be a waste to discard such delicious wine. Even if you would like to preserve it, without an appropriate method the wine will be oxidized and spoiled. Therefore, here are 3 smart tips for you to store an open bottle of red wine!
Method 1: Recork the Wine
To preserve an open bottle of red wine, the 1st rule is to recork it after every glass pour to lower the chance of the wine being exposed to oxygen. Some people may even recork with a vacuum pump wine preserver which pumps air out of the wine bottle to leave the wine fresh for days. At the same time, remember to keep the bottle uplift and store it in the wine cabinet at 10-13°C or in the refrigerator to slow down the oxidation process.
Method 2: Use Half Bottles
When wine is exposed to the air for too long, flavours and aromas will be lessened. To minimize air exposure, pouring leftover wine into half bottle （37.5cl）before recorking the wine bottle will be another way to preserve wine.
Method 3: Coravin Wine Preservation System
Another popular method is to use the Coravin Wine Preservation System. It enables you to enjoy the wine without pulling the cork and keep the wine away from oxidization, so that wine remaining in the bottle can be preserved for a longer period of time. Together with its modern and handy design, it’s perfect for gifting or self-use.
Now that we have 3 methods to store an open bottle of red wine, so you can buy our favorite wine as much of you favorite wine as you want without worrying about any leftover!
