It'll be fine as long as you keep recorking it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Wine once opened, will go 'off' in only a couple of days if left uncorked!. However, since you are putting the cork back in the bottle top, this is slowing down the pace of it going off!.
If you go to your supermarket and have a look around the wine section, you may come across a bottle stopper which can be used to extend the opened life of a bottle of wine by several days!.
Ideally a bottle of wine should be opened and allowed to breath for about half an hour before drinking!. This rule applies mainly to red wines!.

As you can see, you have done the right think by keeping your wine in the fridge!. Heat apparently is enemy number one of an opened bottle of wine!.

I kept wine up to a week before, but if it's too long it can start to taste more like Vinegar:
Clip from the linked website:
Three (3) days!. Around here, we keep wines up to 3 days after the bottle has been opened!. Once a bottle of wine is opened, the oxygen in the air starts a process that initially softens the flavors and opens up the aromas of the wine!. As this process (oxidation) continues over many hours and days, the wine is ultimately made undrinkable!. The trick is to use the wine before it becomes unpalatable or to pour it out before bad wine is served to guests!.
You can (and usually should) refrigerate recorked bottes!. You can buy stoppers and gadgets to create a slight vaccuum in the bottle!. You can get systems that put a layer of inert gas in the bottle!. All these items and efforts are aimed at slowing the oxidation that will eventually destroy the wine!.
I have kept a bottle of wine going for a week before - I can't drink much because I tend to get headaches, just a glass with dinner!.
What I do is to keep a 500ml bottle!. when I open new wine, I fill the 500ml bottle to the brim, and cork it - this one I can keep and drink in another 2 weeks!.
This gives me lots of time to drink my half!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if it's sparkling wine don't keep it for more than a couple of days and couple of weeks for still!.
best bet is a box of wine,where it can last for weeks as no air can get in the bag!.
