Answers:
You can freeze it in ice cube trays and use it to cook with later.
I usually drink it. You can keep in the refrigerator if you like. make sure its capped/corked. After a while it will not be that good to drink but it will still be good to cook with.
Try freezing the excess wine. It later can be used for cooking.
JUST DRINK IT. If you are not going to drink it you can simply re-cork it and keep it in the refrigerator to use later. The best way though would be to get a vacuum seal from a wine store. It is a rubber cork with a valve that lets you pump the air out of the bottle, which is what makes wine go bad. If you then put it in the fridge it should hold well enough to cook with for at least a week.
The wine chefs use is used so often that they may use a dozen a day so they have no problem
From experience wine will last several days after being opened and if you don't want to use it every day it's "down the hatch" or "down the drain", your call.
