How long will my wine last?

StittsvilleJames · 01-31-2012, 01:41 AM

I just started my first wine kit yesterday, and was wondering how long it will last when I put it in the bottles? It is a 4 week White Zinfandel wine kit, from Heritage estates.

We don't drink a ton of wine, and if this makes 30 bottles, will I end up with vinegar by Christmas if it's not all gone by then? I am assuming I will have around 15 or so bottles left in 12 months.

I see many online posts about how you can start drinking 1 month in the bottle, but not many saying how long I can let it age.

Thanks for your help!

I think if its sealed properly longer then you will be around. Given the abv is at 12% or up....
