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.

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.

An unopened bottle of Moët & Chandon champagne can typically be stored for 3 to 5 years in optimal conditions, such as a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, it’s best consumed within 3 to 5 days for the best taste, although you can use a champagne stopper to help preserve its bubbles for a short time.

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!
