Red Wine is a corked glass bottle of red wine. A full bottle lowers hunger and thirst by 20 each and holds 481 calories. It also relieves some unhappiness, which makes it a small comfort in a hard world.

Red Wine is alcoholic. Drinking it raises drunkenness, which hurts coordination on foot and behind the wheel and lowers weapon accuracy. It is best enjoyed in a safe base rather than out in the field.

The bottle is sealed with a cork, and a corkscrew opens it. It comes from liquor stores, bars and booze caches, and six bottles can be packed into a box.

Eating


A full bottle of Red Wine lowers hunger by 20 and thirst by 20. It holds 481 calories. Drinking it also lowers unhappiness a little. Once the bottle is empty, it becomes an empty glass bottle.

The alcohol is the catch. A drunk character moves less steadily, drives poorly and misses more often with weapons. A survivor should only drink when there is no danger nearby.

Port is the closest drink. A full bottle of Port also lowers hunger and thirst by 20 each but holds 1570 calories, more than three times as much.

The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking


The Open Bottle of Wine recipe needs a corkscrew, which is kept. Opening the bottle also gives a Cork.

Six bottles of White Wine or Red Wine can be packed into a box with Pack 6 Bottles of Wine Into Box. Open Box of Wine Bottles reverses this and gives the six bottles back.

The glass bottle itself has other uses. It can be broken for Broken Glass or turned into a Smashed Bottle. It is also accepted by the Make Molotov Cocktail recipe.

Locations


Red Wine is a common find in places that sell or serve drink. Liquor store shelves hold it about half the time. The booze boxes in booze caches give similar odds. A captain's office dishes cabinet holds one half the time.

Bars, bar kitchens and bar storage rooms carry it on shelves and counters. So do restaurant dining rooms. Dishes cabinets in houses turn up a bottle now and then.
