How to store wine after opening

You opened that bottle of wine with friends, or with that special person, but you didn't drink until the end. Or if you have the habit of drinking alone and cannot finish the drink in one go, this does not mean that the rest of the wine will be wasted ........ currently the wine market offers smaller bottles .
If you are in the habit of enjoying your wine alone, it is worth looking see if your favorite labels have these options. So you can drink it, from start finish ........
An important detail (but unknown many people) is that it is not indicated close the wine be used with the same cork. Because it is the contact with air that initiates the wine's deterioration process "oxidation".
Even placing the cork in the most sealed way, the air ends up bypassing the pores of the cork, continuing with the oxidative process of your drink, even with the bottle closed inside the refrigerator.
In addition to the common stoppers not preventing the oxidation process of the wine, they also do not prevent the smells of other stronger foods from invading the bottle, leaving your drink with even more impaired flavor and aroma.
To avoid all these problems, and prolong the useful life of your wine for a few days, the best option is a vacuum stopper (easy to find in stores) This type of option, extracts oxygen from inside the bottle and the saddle, no allowing air to enter.
It is possible to keep the bottle in the refrigerator, in the standing position, because if it is lying down, a larger surface of the liquid will circulate and come into contact with the air inside the container.
Do not store the wine in the refrigerator door, as the constant movement of the drink, once again, will stir the liquid, which will come into contact with the air and oxidize more quickly.

The duration inside the refrigerator is usually;

Sparkling wines - 1 to 2 days;
Whites and Roses - 3 days;
Light reds - 3 days;
Full-bodied reds - 3 to 4 days .
