[Avodah] Wine left out

[Ben Waxman via Avodah]

My question to this is why is it that the Shulchan Aruch, MB and others 
take it as a given that leaving wine out worsens the taste? Did they not 
know that allowing wine to breath improves the taste, at least for a 
decent red wine (which is the type of wine they think we should be 
drinking)?
