Red wine expires for three years. Whether it can be drunk depends on many factors, such as storage conditions, brewing technology and wine type. Generally speaking, after three years of expiration, the taste and quality of red wine may decline, but it will not have a serious impact on human health.
The following factors need attention:
1. Storage conditions: Red wine should be placed in a cool, dry and dark place, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperature. If red wine is affected by sunshine, high temperature or humidity during storage, its quality may be damaged and its taste will deteriorate.
2. Brewing process: different brewing processes will affect the shelf life of red wine. Some high-quality red wines, such as Bordeaux and Burgundy, can be preserved for many years under appropriate storage conditions, while some low-quality red wines can only be preserved for a few years.
3. Wine type: different types of red wine will have different shelf life. Some full-bodied and complex red wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, can be stored for many years under appropriate storage conditions, while some light and refreshing red wines can only be stored for a few years.
Generally speaking, if the red wine expires for three years, it can still be drunk, but the taste and quality may decline. If the quality of red wine is damaged or the storage condition is poor, its quality may be worse, or even may have adverse effects on human health. Therefore, it is recommended to carefully check the appearance and smell of red wine before drinking it to ensure that it does not deteriorate.
