Put it in the sink to thaw. Then drink it. Silly goose. lol.

Take the top off to release the pressure it should be fine

It will be ok to drink for a day or two.

Hahaha that's funny. Once did that with a can of coke.... Mistake! Keep it in a towel (upright) and see what happens. I hope it wasn't red? Enjoy.

it will be ok, just wait for it to warm down.

i dont think it will explode but its going to leakfor a bit.it might be best to leave it outside for a bit in case it does explode.next time just put ice cubes in !!lol i have done this many a time i cant stand room temperature wine,i even chill red wine which i know is a mortal sin to some people but i dont care!!

No, it won't explode or anything like that. It'll be fine. Best bet, place it in the fridge and let it kind of 'thaw' out while in there. You might lose a bit of flavor in the process, but it'll still be fine. Good luck!

Leave it to thaw out naturally leave the bottle upright keep an eye on it , but your wine might be ruined check it out when it has melted.

I don't know. Tell you what, I put one in my freezer now and open it. If you don't hear from me in 3 hours, don't open it.

I just retrieved mine from the freezer...lol. I have left them for hours before and it seems you have rescued yours in time. We usually put the oven timer on now, so we don't forget.

f the wine was truly completely frozen (hard to do because the alcohol significantly lowers the freezing point) it should have either pushed the cork out or broken the bottle. Most likely, wine would be partially frozen (only the water in the wine will actually freeze), making a slushy. Freezing (or partially freezing) would potentially impact the structure of a red wine more than a white. A delicate red, like a Pinot Noir, would more likely be affected than a sturdy red like a Syrah..Thaw out and drink the whites (assuming the bottle isn't broken, of course). Even if the cork is pushed up, they are probably oka

I did that and the bottle broke because ice takes up more room than liquid if it hasnt broke in the night it will be fine just let it defrost at room temperature.

no honey as the pressure is escaping,get it drunk or pop round i am on the vodka.

It won't explode, but if you put the bottle somewhere warm it might crack. I think the best advice you've been given is to either put it outside until it thaws out, or in the fridge to defrost gently. It certainly won't have improved the flavour of your wine, but it should still be drinkable.
Incidentally, to the answerer who likes to chill red wine: it isn't a mortal sin to chill red, there are some which are acknowledged to improve with chilling, and if you like it, why not! Have you tried Banrock Station fizzy red. It's a bit like champagne, only red, and it's great chilled.

Methinks you drunk to much of it in the first place B !!! Make sure the stopper is out so it doesn't build up pressure - should be nice and cold to drink for tonight!

but its ok for there.
if take wine my mother will hang me on the roof fan by rope.
i take only milk & water also!
