To begin with, here are a few important nuances that will help you store wine properly:
1. After opening, the wine immediately begins to oxidize, a process that causes chemical decomposition and leads to the drink becoming faded in color, less strong in taste, and completely losing its luster.

2. The shelf life of wine depends on the variety you use.
3. Red wines keep better than white wines and aged wines keep longer than young wines. Young wines should be stored for 3 or 4 days, and older wines for about a week.
