i would think that to cram the plastic into a wide mouth decanter, or a wine pitcher pour the wine on it, and then just leave the plastic in the container.

mr waterhouse did not mention the type of plastic to use. plastic is not an element. various plastic films are very different chemical compositions.

mr waterhouse was very surprised that the aging process in wines was accelerated by raising the temp, and that the wine was not necessarily ruined when stored in that manner. sounds to me like "professor of wine chemistry at the University of California, Davis, and a specialist in oxidation reactions and phenolic substances" never took a course in oxidation reduction reactions.
