Take a piece of plastic wrap, fold it over several times to make it thicker, cover the top of the bottle and secure it with a rubber band or twist tie.

Things to put in a wine basket?
Here are a few options. * wine glasses specific to the type of wine you’ve purchased ( there are different ones) * decorative wine stoppers * wine glass charms * corkscrew * a nice block of cheese ( brie or asiago tastes really good with wine) * crackers (try out flavors sesame, garlic,cheese,etc.) * cheese spreaders * food that would go well with the wine, such as pasta, olives or smoked salmon * a wine bottle opener * a picnic blanket I would say though that the key to a good wine basket is first of all, putting good wine in it. Also, make sure you put in the type of wine they drink. Giving a wine basket with reds when they drink whites defeats the purpose. Also, you can really put other things in if you decide to make it a "theme" basket. Get creative. Italian wine, pasta,Tuscany truffles and an Italian cookbook and voila you have a theme. Have fun!
What is the best way to put a cork back in a wine bottle?
I usually put the cork back in upside down because the part that was originally in the bottle is a little swollen. If that doesn't work for you, get a stopper from the liquor store to keep on hand for those half drunk bottles.
How do I recap a Stella Rosa wine bottle?
You don’tSparkling wine corks are compressed by a machine before they are inserted into the neck of the bottle and once it comes out it expands quite a bit and can’t really be put back into the bottle.One can buy devices that are designed to temporarily reseal a sparking wine bottle but they cost more than that bottle of wine is worth.If you don’t want to drink the wine just accept that you messed up a 10 dollar bottle of wine and consider it a learning experience.
Accidentally put hole through wine cork, will it go bad?
Hi, I accidentally cork screwed into my wine cork a little too far, leaving a tiny piercing. It's not a straight hole, so it's still sort of concealed- if i tip it upside down after a while a tiny bit of wine will leak out. Will the wine stay fresh/safe to drink like this? Thanks.
Why do wines use corks in simple terms?
In simple terms, the bottle needs to be stoppered with something, otherwise the wine will eith run out during storage and transportation, or oxidise through contact with the air.Now, it is easy to seal a container with plastic or plastic lined metal caps. But hundreds of years ago, no such technology was available. Cork can be compressed and inserted into the bottle neck to form a water/wine tight seal. As an added bonus, it is not completely air tight, so the wine will still ‘breath’ though the cork and continue to slowly mature in the bottle.Cork continues to be used by many wine makers for traditional and aesthetic reasons, even though modern screw cap closures are arguably technically better.
