What do you do when you’ve popped open the bubbly and can’t finish the bottle? On the rare occasion this happens to me, I pull out the spoon. Yes, you read that right. Although this method is up for debate, I personally have found that works. Thank you Michael Chiarello who shared this tip with me 10 years ago. I’ve been doing it ever since!
What to do:
- Avoid letting the sparkling wine or champagne get to room temperature if possible.
- Insert the handle of a stainless steel spoon into the opening of your bottle.
- Place sparkling wine or champagne back into the refrigerator.
