I agree Ray, but that 2nd bottle?

Jon Peterson wrote:I have often read here that once a bottle of a typical red wine is opened it's just a matter of time, days at the most, before it is no longer worth drinking. Is this true even if little wine is removed from the bottle, say one 4 oz glass? I very rarely have open bottles around but after a recent tasting I was given my choice of any opened wines to take home, which I did with 6 or 7 wines. The corks are back in and they are in the fridge. One of my selection criteria was the fill level - was this a waste of time?

I want to put this as nicely as I can, and I respect your right to your own tastes, but I can't let this one stand out in public without observing that very, very few wine enthusiasts would agree with this.
Two <i>days</i>, sure. But I would never recommend hanging on to red wine in an opened bottle for one week, much less two, irrespective of the wine's quality.
