I started researching this question again today , as I happened to find a bottle of Fox Den

1991 private reserve 'Temecula Chenin Blanc' in our bar. It was most likely purchased by my mom back around that time. She passed away that same year.

I was wary of opening it, to say the least. Nearly 20 years gone by. But, hey it doesn't hurt to have a sniff. It looked OK, nice golden color. So...open I it did. Guess what??? It smells great!! sip, sip. Wow, it tastes great! Best white wine I've had in years.

So...there ya have it. Maybe not all wines keep this well, but this one is sensational. Cya....Gotta go refill my glass.

Before it's opened, keep it in a dark cool place and with the cork lower than the bottom of the bottle. It will be good for years. After opening, reseal it well and keep it in the fridge. It will be good for up to a week.

Wine snobs would say that any wine left after uncorking should be discarded within four to six hours. Truthfully, wine will keep for two to three days unrefrigerated as long as the bottle is resealed. if the bottle is left open, about a day.

It depends on the wine. Some should not be drunk after 2 or 3 years. Some (for example Côteaux du Layon) can improve during as long as 1 century. The oldest one I have drunk was 80 years old (it had been made by the father of my grandfather), and it was marvellous.

several...you should turn it daily though

At least 25 years, it ferments over time, and Ive never heard of over fermented wine, so forever? But that's unsure

How long does red wine last without opening?

The taste of the wine starts to change as soon as you open it. Wine connoisseurs will advise that you drink the wine within a few hours of opening. I, however, often put the cork back in the bottle and finish the next day and it has never harmed me, and since I drink inexpensive wine, the flavor is pretty much the same.

How long does unopened white wine last?

Generally speaking, white wines do not age well in comparison to their red counterparts. If it has been 2 years or more, chances are likely it's time to introduce it to the dumpster. If the wine was kept chilled in the refrigerator, it may last 3 years. The warmer wine is (particularly white wine), the shorter the shelf life. As an end note, as you have not stated the exact wine you are referring to, I would like to let you know that a dry white vermouth will last virtually eons. It has added alcohol, and is great to keep on hand for cooking purposes, as it does not go bad, and does not need to be chilled. It isn't, however, the best wine for drinking...I would use it for cooking purposes only.
