How long does mulled wine last?

The alcohol content of the mulled wine is decisive for the shelf life.

  • A mulled wine with an alcohol content of 12% or more has a high acid content. The drink has a longer shelf life because the acid binds bacteria.
  • If you store closed bottles in a cool and dark place, alcoholic mulled wine will keep for 5-6 years.
  • According to the law, alcohol-free mulled wine must have a best-before date. Usually, this is 2-3 years.
  • Open bottles, whether with or without alcohol, should be kept in the refrigerator and consumed within a week.
