Wine bottle seal broken, cork exposed

Hi, I was wondering if my wine bottle that covers the cork was broken and removed, and the cork was exposed, will it cause a problem cellaring? Should I drink it soon? Cheers.

If it's the capsule you're talking about - a decorative bit of tinfoil which is not airtight and can be twisted off with your bare hands - then the only thing its absence will affect is resale value. It's the cork which is (allegedly) the seal.
