storing wine?

[Thomas]

Jessie, that thing that supposedly sucks air out of the bottle is truly worthless.

When you open a bottle of wine (750ml) the wine immediately begins to alter from exchange with oxygen. You can preserve it somewhat either by filling the space left in the bottle with nitrogen or pouring half the contents into a smaller bottle and capping it for later use. You can get at least a few days out of the wine that way--red or white, and when you do it, you can refrigerate them.

I have found no good way to preserve sparkling wine, even when using the items that supposedly keep in the CO2; they do, but not for long.

Now, let's see how many disagree with me!
