Sparkling Wine?!


Question: I have absolutely zero knowledge about wine of any variety, only that I don't like most of the ones I have tried, but I have recently bought Brown Brothers Zibibbo Rosa Sparkling Wine to try.

What I would like to know is it able to be resealed after opening and how long will it last after it's been opened?

A sparkling wine stopper will aid in retaining the bubbles but the delicate fruity nature of that wine is best enjoyed in the first day or two.
In general wines that go through secondary fermentation in the bottle retain their bubbles for a long period as the gas in infused into the wines slowly and more completely. If it says "method champenoise", "method traditionale", "traditional method" its a secondary in the bottle situation. Carbonated wine like Andre or Cooks is like soda pop. Big bubbles that quickly disappear.

If you go to any liquor store they have wine bottle stoppers. just ask. If you use the stopper, it should last a couple of days, just cap it asap after pouring it.

Look for a Champagne Stopper which is especially designed for sparkling wines. It will last 2 or 3 days after opening although the bubbles will deteriorate.

Not long at all, My advise is to either drink it or dump it, It's not worth resealing Sparkling wine or Champagne once it was opened....

If you don't like wine, why do you keep trying?
