Once you’ve popped your cork, there’s no turning back: in only a matter of days, a delicious bottle of fine wine can transform into unpalatable vinegary swill. The consensus seems to be that, when stored in a fridge, resealed wine will last around three days before becoming undrinkable. For those who can’t remember that far back, this wine stopper acts as an elegant reminder of when the bottle was initially opened. Simply twirl the rings round to display the correct date before inserting the stainless steel stopper. After you’ve crossed the three-day threshold, it’s up to you to decide whether to re-purpose your booze as cooking wine, or risk a quick swig.
