Sounds like you're at a restaurant or something similar? An open bottle of wine will last a couple days in the fridge and still be fine for cooking. Maybe longer. But probably not for weeks at room temperature--you're going to end up with vinegar! For cooking wines, you're not concerned so much about them aging correctly and more concerned about them just tasting right in your dish. So keeping the ideal temp is less of an issue, and you could keep them in a regular fridge rather than one meant for wine storage at 55 degrees for aging. It would be a fairly simple matter to drill into the door of a minifridge and add a padlock to it, if keeping it locked up is the major concern. Or perhaps you could keep the bottles inside a locked box inside a chill room or something? a safe in the walk-in fridge? Hope at least some of those crazy ideas were useful!

Also it cannot be left in a unlocked place, so that rules out the fridge. Would it be satisfactory to get a bottle of red wine, and another of white, keep it in a room temp closet and used only for cooking? Also I wonder which varietals would make a general all purpose wine of the red and the white. If I cook with it say, once a week will I at least be able to get 1/2 through the 2 bottles before they expire?
