	Any wine not drunk is called vinegar! Mind you a nice glass of red or white wine vinegar is permissible if all other wines have been consumed :-D Waste wine is also good for cleaning toilets, as I constantly observe ;-) :-D :-D

	They usually say cook with leftover wine.....is that a special bottle/vintage?? Any wine not drunk is only good for cleaning the drains!!
