What does 'Dry' mean in this context?

Troubleshooting

Wine tastes stale or flat.

Ensure the bottle is properly sealed and stored. If opened, ensure it's been stored in the refrigerator with a stopper and consumed within a reasonable timeframe (2-4 weeks).

Wine appears cloudy.

Cloudiness is not necessarily an indication of spoilage, but if you're concerned, inspect the wine closely, and consider that it may have been stored improperly.
