I opened a bottle of wine (pinot noir, I got it as a gift a few years back) to use some in a soup, but now I have almost an entire bottle of wine left, and I don't drink!!! Can I store an opened bottle? how long will it be good for? What else can I do with it, other than make more soup?

Or just throw it. Back to top Manny18 Yahoo User Posted: Mon Jun 02, 2008 3:56 pm    Post subject: either cook with it or drink it or refrigerate it.

Coq au vin. Beef casseroles will be nice and rich with it added. Or just add it to things and see how it works out.

You could use one of the sealers, and they work for a few days. Hopefully it wasn't an expensive bottle. It's a nice varietal that goes with quite a few meals. Aside from cooking with it, there isn't too much to do with it. In actuality, you want to cook with a nice wine too.

You can use one of those vacuum things especially for using on wine bottles, and re-cork it but most likely it will still only keep a few days. Wine goes off just like anything else.You may be able to drink it after a long time, but it probably won't taste terribly nice. We've had fantastic wine that has been re-corked and yet the next day has become awful.

After that, it could be used in cooking. The alcohol burns off, and only the flavor remains.Longer than that, it should just be poured down the drain, and the bottle should be recycled.
