No one likes to waste a great bottle of wine. But if you want to hang on to a bottle after opening it, you shouldn’t just shove the cork back into it.
There are plenty of tips for keeping an opened bottle of wine fresh for later, but one sommelier has gone viral on TikTok after explaining why you should never reuse the cork.
Warner Boin, who goes by @confidenceuncorcked on TikTok, is a 30-year-old sommelier with more than 80,000 followers.
“I know it sounds crazy,” Warner said in the video. “Don’t put the cork back in the bottle.”
