White wine lasts for ages if it’s recorked ……….. taste it ………. if it’s passable drink it ……….. if not use it as drain cleaner …………..

Smell and taste it like you were at a restaurant and it had just been uncorked. You don’t have to know wines well to recognize the smells of mold or vinegar. That’s all you’re checking for, now and when eating out.
If it smells of neither, it’s safe to drink. If you’re not sure you want to, you can always cook with it. Many seafood and poultry recipes involve adding white wine.
If it’s gone to vinegar (unlikely in this short a time) you can use it to make salad dressing, mixed with oil and spices.

Make it into vinegar. When my wife was still living she had a wooden barrel that I bought in a Sunday market in Bruxelles that she put all the stale wine into… it makes delightful vinegar.
