Red Wine

While juice from black grapes is actually greenish-white, red wine gets its color from the pigments in the grape skin. As the wine ages, it loses its color. The antioxidants and resveratrol in red wine are also thought to have major health benefits.

What is the weight of 1litre of wine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The MASS of 1 liter of wine is slightly less than 1 kilogram. By definition, a liter of water (under certain assumptions about temperature and pressure) is exactly equal to 1 kilogram of mass. Wine is a mixture of mostly water, along with some alcohol, and minute quantities of other substances. Because water is the primary component, one would expect the mass of wine to be very close to that of water. But alcohol is somewhat less dense than water, so that part of the mixture has less weight than if it too was water. Therefore, because of the alchohol component of wine, the total density of wine must be slightly less than water, and therefore the mass of a given volume of wine will be slightly less than that of an identical volume of water.

How many ounces of red wine is healthy to drink in aday?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is no single right answer. Personal preference and size of the person matter.

For a typical person to achieve the health benefits of drinking red-wine, one 5 to 7 oz of wine with a meal is a good target amount.

If you are concerned about consuming too much alcohol, keep in mind that most of the health benefits of drinking wine can also be achieved by drinking dark grape juice. There is some research that suggests that a small amount of alcohol is beneficial, so you won't get that from grape juice. But certainly, too much alcohol will more than offset any health benefits from drinking a modest amount of wine. If you have concerns about alcohol consumption, stick to the grape juice.

Do you chill red wine after opening?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes you can chill red wine at any stage. It is typically served at room temperature but chilling after the bottle is opened will slow the oxidation process. What i recommend is that you have a smaller bottle handy so that you can fill it up to the top and store it somewhere. That will leave you with a drinkable amount and will also make sure that the leftover wine does not oxidize.

How do you remove red wine from suede?

Stain Rx (a.k.a. Erado-Sol), is the best stain remover out there. I have been using it on red wine stains since 1969. Just touch it to red wine, iodine, berries (INCLUDING POMEGRANATE), fruit punch, cranberry juice, and the stains disappear in a second. Stains such as mascara, lipstick, blood, balsamic vinegar, vanilla extract and others come out with a little massaging and rinsing. Soak your diamond, gold and platinum jewelry in it for 20 minutes to overnight, you won't believe it! By the way, the University of California -- Davis did a study on red wine stain removal and the #1, ready to use winner was Stain Rx (a.k.a. Erado-Sol). It killed Wine Away which is available everywhere. Go to (link removed)to see what else it does. As far as carpeting and upholstery: I use Stain Rx on carpeting and upholstery all the time and have the method down. First, I vacuum the entire carpet or piece of upholstery being treated. Then I clean the entire carpet or upholstery with my Hoover Steam-Vac, a carpet shampooer is at least as good, plus, I ONLY use warm water - no detergent at all. The Hoover sprays in water and vacuums it out. For the carpet I use the Steam-Vac and on upholstery I use the Steam-Vac attachments to do this. While the carpet or upholstery is still wet from this step, do the following; Depending on the size of the stain, put a "dot" of Stain Rx on your fingertip and rub out one stain at a time. After treating a stain, remove all the soapy residue from that area using the instructions below and go on to the next stain. HERE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART: You have to remove all the soapy residue using the attachments from the Steam-Vac, carpet shampooer or a wet/dry shop vacuum. RINSE OUT ALL OF THE SOAPY RESIDUE USING WATER AND THE VACUUM. If you leave Stain Rx in the area, dust will stick forming a gray spot in a few weeks. If this happens, just add water and remove all of the soapy residue.

Can cooking Sherry be used instead of Red Wine Vinegar?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, but the flavors will be different. And you should use real wine or real sherry, not the salt heavy 'cooking' versions found in many grocery stores. The alcohol releases and dissolves some flavors that water based recipes will not, adding to the flavors.

Essentially any alcohol should be allowed to evaporate through heating to leave the flavor of the wine used. Whether a recipe calls for cooking sherry, wine, or not, I often deglaze any meats cooked in a frying pan with red or white wine. The French say that you should use the best wine you can afford for this process but I use whatever I have to hand.

Can you use red wine instead of port wine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I would say yes for most recipes.

Use a richer full bodied red wine. If you are using the wine in a sweet dish (eg pears poached in wine) you may need to add something to make up fro the lower sugar in the the red wine, sugar or perhaps a spoonful of honey.

Can diabetics drink red wine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I'm sorry but I really think you should research your answer before putting it up here. If a diabetic with type 2 is going to drink alcohol at all - red wine is better and always with food NOT wine wine as you suggested here.

'It is best for diabetics to drink white wine and not red, because the red has more sugars in it than white wine. White wine also goes better with fish which is also good for diabetics to eat.'

Does red wine raise hemoglobin?

User Avatar

no... it seems to reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) and it also causes a brief increase in heart rate and blood pressure, comparable to that experienced by 5 min of exercise, which may have health benefits. Reducing hemoglobin would not be a healthy or desirable effect of drinking red wine.

How do you remove red wine from johns carpet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The most popular home removal treatment for red wine stains is dishwashing soap and hydrogen peroxide. Rug or carpet cleaner can be substituted for the soap, if needed. The mixture should be mostly hydrogen peroxide, but recipe amounts vary among sources (about a teaspoon of soap to a cup of peroxide seems to be correct.) Dip a sponge in this mixture or spray the mixture onto the stain and use a damp sponge to lift. After the stain is completely removed, sponge with clear water and blot dry as much as possible. Allow to air dry completely before vacuuming.

The same mixture works as a laundry pre-treatment for clothing and will remove red wine from other fabrics (drapes, comforters, tablecloths, etc.)
