The bottle of wine was placed horizontally on a wine rack together with other wine in a non-airconditioned room (temperature about 25 to 27 degree celscius). Today, the cork was forced out of the bottle suddenly, spilling the wine. The bottle was not touched at all.
Can someone explain why the cork was forced out of the 750ml bottle. This is my first experience. I have also not heard of such experience before.

Two years ago my dad planted a wine vineyard in our backyard. this past september was the first year he was able to crush the grapes and make wine. he is soooo into this and is sooo proud of it. he has been taking classes at the community college and everything.
the other day i had 3 friends over and i asked my dad if we could go and smell the wine that was fermenting in the cellar. he said yes as long as we put the cork back in. i had never seen it so i was excited and stuff. well after we weredone looking at it i tried to put the cork back in and i couldnt do it. so i tried one last time and the cork pushed WAYYYY to far in. its next to impossible to get it out now but the bottle is still corked. i was scared to tell him about it but he found it today. he is FURRIOUS. idont know how to apologize.
i know i should have told him sooner but i was soo scared that hed freak out. i dont kno what i was thinking. hes in the kitchen rite now….what should i go and say to him????

Hello wine lovers- We have a 3 litre bottle of 1993 Beaulieu Vineyard Georges De Latour Cabernet Sauvignon. I think my husband got it as a high school graduation present (back in 1995). It’s been in the basement until about a year ago when we had to move it to room temperature upstairs. It has some tiny drops of sticky, dark red residue peeking through the holes around the cork. Is it bad?

I usually put the cork back in and put what I haven’t finished in the refrigerator. A couple timed I’ve left it in there for a week or longer. Is it still ok to drink?

I received a Japanese Sake wine as a gift four years ago, and I haven’t opened it yet. It is sealed with a metal-aluminum, not with a cork.

Hello.
I love wine. When I was 13, i used to find these purple berries and I would crush them and put them in bottles in hopes that they would turn into wine. The berries were probably poisonous. But anyways, I never got to see if it was wine because it froze when I had them in the garage. Also, another bottle exploded all over my room because the cork shot off of it one day.
So, you know how they have all those wine cellars (such as this http://wine-storage.biz/wine_storage/images/wine-cellar-database.jpg) where all the bottles are put on the racks?? Are these bottles fermenting?? Or do they never let them ferment in the glass bottle?
Can someone give me tips on how I can make my own wine in a traditional style without getting too much into the mass production and bucket using methods (that are like cheating) that people use when they buy like a kit or something?

I have a bottle of red wine I opened Friday night but I put the cork back in the bottle the best I can and kept it in the refrigerator. How long is red wine good for after you open it?

I have just received a white bordeaux wine. I would like to let it age for a couple of years. I don’t have any special wine cellars or refrigerators so i’m using my normal fridge. I have also let it on its side so the cork is moist.
My question: is it ok for it to be in a normal refrigerator like that? (It is at 43 degrees F). Also will the low humidity really affect it? Also there is an air bubble in the wine bottle, is that normal or is that bad?

My friend and I had half of a bottle of wine with dinner last night, but chose to not drink the rest. I put the cork back in the bottle and placed the bottle in the refrigerator. I need to know if this will cause the taste of the wine to deteriorate and how quickly I should finish the bottle off.
Also a little more on that question, I put a bottle of red wine in the freezer to cool down quickly and ended up forgetting about it. Is this wine ruined?

Ok I’ve looked up this question already but the answers are confusing for me. So if I open a bottle of red wine, and re-cork it shortly after, and choose not to store it in a refrigerator, how long will it last? Also, if the bottle has not been re-corked, how long will it last before it goes bad?
