Many red wines do very well to sit a day or so after they are opened, and in some cases actually taste better once they have opened up. If you're just keeping it open for another day or so, it will generally do alright with its cork put back in a bit and set in a cool, dark part of the house. White wines will keep for a bit in the fridge, but there is the very real risk of the wine absorbing various funky odors while it's in there. Wine shops do sell cans of nitrogen that are supposed to flush oxygen out of an open bottle of wine right before you put the cork back in. When done properly, this retards the oxidation process, but I suspect most wine makers offer it just to make a buck. In short, try to drink a bottle within a day or two of opening, and you are bound to be fine most of the time

Wine, that could be a fermented drink and has a somewhat low share of alcohol, have a tendency to pass to pot in a brief time. that still relies upon on the place that is saved after the bottle is open. warmth, mild, oxygen, and vibration are the main reasons to make it bypass undesirable. confirm you consume a bottle of wine in a pair of days after that is open. If there is a few left interior the bottle, you ought to use it in cooking.

It first has to be exposed to the right kind anaerobic bacteria and then the formation of the "mother" culture will depend on the level of alcohol. The lower the alcohol the quicker bacterial culture will spread.

Wine won't turn into vinigar without adding a "mother" to it. It might not taste very good after a while, but it won't be vinigar.
