Any questions?

There’s no definitive answer as bottle sizes vary, but on average you can get around 4-5 glasses from a standard 750ml bottle of vino. Of course, how generous you pore determines the exact count. I tend to subscribe to the notion that it’s better to drink less but savor more!

Most wine bottles contain around 25 ounces (750 ml) of the good stuff. Though petite bottles of only 187ml exist for those who want to indulge in moderation. No matter the size, the key is finding the right balance – drink too little and you miss out, but drink too much and the headaches aren’t worth it!

If you’re caught without a corkscrew, fear not – there are MacGyver-esque solutions. My favorites involve using a shoe, table edge, towel plus some muscle. Just be careful – opening under pressure means things could get messy fast. Better to prep properly next time!

Within reason, wine maintains quality for a decent period after opening. Reds usually last 3-5 days in the fridge while whites often remain at their best for 2-3 days. Factors like temperature, bottle type also affect shelf life. And of course, taste is key – if it’s starting to taste off, it’s time for a refresh. Drink up!

Yes, wine is naturally gluten free since it’s fermented from gluten-free grapes. Of course, check the labels as some wines are filtered using gluten ingredients. And avoid beersitting mistakes – stick with vino if keeping it truly without gluten is important for your diet.

On average, a standard 5 ounce glass of red wine has around 125 calories. Enjoying in moderation can be part of a balanced lifestyle, though it’s best paired with exercise to burn those extra calories. All things in moderation, I say – including moderation! Sip, savor, but don’t overindulge unless you want to wake up with more than just a hangover.
