Red wine, or white for that matter, will slowly oxidise and turn to vinegar when left uncorked. This will take a few days, depending on the temperature and the nature of the wine. Drinking the wine after this will probably not be harmful to you, but it will be distateful. You can use it cooking for longer. the best thing to do is to recork the wine and refrigerate it until you want to drink it within hte next day or two.

∙ 14y agoWine usually does not have an expiration date. It is a bottle to bottle decision on wheather or not it is drinkable or not. Wine will keep a long time as long as it has been stored on its side (never upright) in a cool, dry place. If it has in fact 'turned' it will probably not make you sick, just taste very bad.

The wine will be quite safe to drink but it may be 'oxidised'. If it is it will not taste very nice and you will not actually want to drink it.
I'd personally be a little leery of drinking wine that has an expiration date at all. Truly good wines often get better with age.

∙ 13y agoIt is certainly more risky than if it is not expired. Be especially wary if the packaging shows signs of bulging - that might mean an accumulation of gases in the interior.

How long does unopened California chardonnay champagne last?
Like most wines, opened champagne will go flat and lose its wine characteristics as soon as 24 hours. Even recorking or removing the oxygen from the top of the bottle will only preserve the champagne for an extra 1-2 days. It is best to drink your bubbly at one sitting, or expect to use it in some cocktail mixers.

Cheap wines are made and sold to be drunk immediately. They will not improve with age. You could keep a bottle of cheap red or white in a drinkable condition for about three years, but it won't be as good as the day you bought it.
How long is champagne good in the fridge?
There isn't any specific shelf-life for champagne...it varies due to the ingredients and makers. Champagne keeps for a few years as long as it is stored in a cool, dark, dry environment. Example: A bottle that has been on your shelf for 2 years will still be good for consumption. A bottle that has been in your closet for 8 years should be used only for cruise-liner christenings!

What if you accidentally a whole bottle of champagne?
When that happened to me, I just let it thaw. The liquid was icy but it was definitely drinkable. We didn't wait for it to thaw completely before drinking it. It was New Years, after all! It tasted great.
