An open bottle should be drank w/in a week on two. But it won't really "go bad", as in be bad for you. It'll just loose a little flavor.
They do make a special rubber stopper that vaccums air out of the bottle to keep it fresh longer. Look at the kitchen specialty shop at the mall!

honestly i don't know, when i open a bottle of wine it only lasts about 3 days before i consume the whole bottle. i do believe it will last about a week or two as long as you make sure that the cork or wine topper is sealed tightly. smell the wine before you drink it, if it smells vinegary then it is no good. remember you can always use leftover wine to cook with as well.

It will be "okay" to drink long after it is no longer palatable to drink...Typically the rule of thumb is 3-4 days for red wines and 7-10 days for whites. You can extend the life of the red by, dare I say it, REFRIGERATING it. Just be sure to allow the wine to come back to room temperature before drinking so as not to be barbaric...this can add a couple of days.
Salude!

Not long. Perhaps 2 days max.
But, if you get one of those corks with a pump that allows you to suck the air out the wine will last longer. Perhaps up to 2 weeks.

It will be ok to drink for a long long time,,, but once the air gets to it the flavor degrades.

DON'T WASTE IT!! If its past the time you wish to allow-then use it in a marinade or sauce.
