Frequently Asked Questions About Wine

Does wine go bad after opening?

Yes, opened wine gradually loses its freshness as it reacts with air. Re-seal the bottle and refrigerate it to slow this process; sparkling wine usually loses its fizz sooner than still wine.

How should you store an unopened bottle of wine?

Store unopened wine in a cool, dark place where the temperature stays fairly steady. If it has a cork, laying the bottle on its side helps keep the cork from drying out; avoid leaving wine in a hot car or sunny window.

Is red wine healthier than white wine?

Red wine can contain more grape-skin antioxidants because it is usually fermented with the skins. That does not make it a healthy choice overall: alcohol carries health risks, and wine is not recommended as a way to gain health benefits.

Does wine contain sugar?

Yes, wine can contain sugar left over from the grapes. The amount depends on the style and fermentation; dry wine generally has less residual sugar than sweet wine.

Does wine help you sleep?

No. Wine may make you feel sleepy at first, but alcohol can disrupt sleep later in the night and reduce its restorative quality. Drinking wine is not a reliable way to improve sleep.

Does wine dehydrate you?

Yes, alcohol in wine can increase urine production and contribute to dehydration. Drinking water alongside wine can help limit dehydration, but it does not cancel out alcohol’s effects.

Should you refrigerate wine after opening it?

Yes, refrigerating opened wine slows the loss of freshness, including red wine. Take red wine out shortly before serving if you prefer it less chilled; keep the bottle sealed between pours.

How is wine made?

Wine is made by fermenting grape juice with yeast, which converts grape sugars into alcohol. Red wine is commonly fermented with grape skins, while white wine is usually made from juice separated from the skins.

Can you cook with wine?

Yes, wine can add acidity and aroma to sauces, stews, and braises. Use a wine you would be willing to drink, and allow it to cook with the food so its raw alcohol aroma softens.

Can you drink wine while pregnant?

No. There is no known safe amount of alcohol during pregnancy, and wine is no exception. Avoid wine and other alcoholic drinks throughout pregnancy.
