Picture this: you've had a long day at work, you really need to unwind, and you realise you've got one of your favourite bottles of wine in the fridge. So you treat yourself to a glass, savouring every last drop. But then you decide you've had enough for the evening, so you replace the cork ready to enjoy the wine another day and head to bed. Can you tell what's wrong with this scene?

Sommelier and self-titled wine educator Warner regularly shares tips and tricks with wine lovers on TikTok as @confidenceuncorked, and her latest video solves one of the most common problems.
In a video dedicated to leftover wine - one that has amassed 1.8 million views - the pro explains why the cork method is not the way to go and offers a different solution.
