does wine go bad if you heat it to 350 degrees?

I decided to make dinner tonight and I preheated my oven to 350 degrees. When I went to put my dish in, much to my surprise, there was a bottle of moscato which my roommates apparently decided to store in the oven (the obvious place right?). Did I ruin it? What happens to wine when you heat it that much?

    Yes, it is 'definitely' ruined -- e-s-p-e-c-i-a-l-l-y Moscato.

    The sugars & overall features of the wine will no longer have the same characteristics

    and after such a brutal temperature change, they are essentially 'scortched' and will probably be very bitter.

    Let the bottle cool down on top of the stove, and put it in the trash in the morning.

    you boil out the alcohol. I am surprised the bottle didn't shatter.
