Some Basics To Remember For Wine Storage:

wall wine

Right Temperature

Although ideal temperature can vary from one variety to another, the average optimal conditions for long-term wine storage are around 55°F (13 ±3 °C) and between 90% and 70% relative humidity. Choose an area where the temperature will likely be more stable and not deviate often. Extreme heat can cause your Wine to mature faster, thus posing a big threat for those aiming for long-term storage.

Avoid Extreme Cold

Long-term storage in a fridge is a no-no. There is a chance of your wine flavour becoming dull if kept in extreme cold for too long. Apart from this, strong odours from food in the fridge could affect its quality, and the dry environment could cause the cork to shrink, thereby increasing the chances of Wine getting oxidised. However, a few days or weeks in the fridge isn't a problem.

Horizontal Positioning

It is advised to store wine bottles in a lying position rather than standing, especially if you prefer natural corks. The reason is to prevent your Wine from ageing prematurely. If a wine bottle is kept standing for too long, it will lead to the cork getting dried, which causes shrinking, thus letting air inside the bottle. This faulty oxidisation will cause the Wine to lose its originality as taste and flavour both get altered. Therefore, it is best advised to store bottles horizontally, ensuring the cork's moistness at all times, which means it will be swollen and properly sealed in simple terms, thus securing the Wine at its finest.

Lighting

Transparency of most bottles means the Wine is liable to light exposure, and constant exposure is not good. V rays also have a degrading impact on the taste, smell and appearance. You don't want a wine with an unappealing aroma and taste, do you? For the above reasons, storing wine bottles in darker and cooler places is recommended.

So far, you have learned that you must use the Kitchen Effectively for Storing Wine.

  • Avoid spots that are exposed to heat.

  • Avoid spots that are exposed to light.

  • Avoid unstable spots and cause a lot of shaking and movement.
