Wine sees more micro-oxygenation every moment it's in the bottle, and gets riper and more evolved every second until it finally hits a '"peak" of optimal drinkability. And once it peaks, it begins to decline very quickly. Just like an avocado sees a peak of perfect ripeness and we know what a brief window that is! Once a bottle of wine has been opened or uncorked, it's exposed to much more oxygen and therefore, the evolution process is drastically sped up.
This is why you have a limited time to enjoy it at its peak of flavor. However, although wine that's past its prime peak may taste a little flat or stale, it's not actually harmful to consume. As long as it tastes okay to you, feel free to drink it-just as in moments of desperation, a slightly brown avocado is better than no avocado.
Sparkling wines like Champagne, cava , and prosecco have the shortest enjoyment window-once the cork is popped, the bottle pressure that retains the bubbles dissipates and the wine turns flat. A sparkling wine stopper might help for a day or so, but I recommend you drink sparkling wine the day you open it. Phone: Wine Uncorked.
