Wine Quiz Answer

Wrong answer...
Wine Quiz Answer:  C. one week

An open bottle of wine will begin turning into vinegar within a week, due to the presence of acetic bacteria and oxygen. However, its flavors will degrade far earlier than that. As a rule of thumb, expect a wine to begin loosing many of its good qualities within eight hours, and to be highly flawed within a day of popping the cork.
