Can long grain rice expire

A bottle of wine has a tapered "neck" to minimize the surface area of wine in contact with air. Air is bad. Oxygen "oxidizes" elements of the wine . Wine also creates or releses d=gases on fillinbg that purge air from the space above the wine. Once you open a bottle thes gases could escape and be exchanged with air. Once you remove wine from a "full bottle" ( filled into the neck) you are definitely introducing air that will destroy the wine. Cheers! Peter

Actually, I have had different results with different bottles of wine. Some are going downhill within 1 or 2 days of being open, but I had a 2009 Riesling that was great to drink after nearly 2 weeks! But this is not always the case, I'm sure.
