Wine storage

A well-known characteristic of wine is that it can be stored over time:

in the correct location, white wines can be stored for about two years

after their vintage although ideally they should be drunk within one

year. While light red wines can be stored for up to two years, full-

bodied reds will age well for 10 years and dessert wines even up to

twenty years.

When you buy a bottle of wine, transfer it to your wine cellar or other

suitable place immediately.

There are three main factors that weigh on the process from grape

cultivation to harvesting and fermentation: light, humidity and ambient

temperature. To ensure the taste of the wine matures to its peak and

the aroma remains unaltered, it must be stored with the right interaction of these three factors.

Storage location

Not everyone has a basement suitable for use as a cellar.

Technology has only recently come up with an effective

substitute for a natural cellar. Your new wine cellar is a

special appliance designed specifically to hold and store

wines properly. Indeed, it should only be used for your

favourite bottles of wine, not for fruit, vegetables and tins. In

this way, you can store and age any kind of wine properly

even if you don’t have a natural wine cellar.

How to store wine

When storing your wine bottles, one golden rule not to be overlooked is that they must be laid

horizontally or at an angle to ensure the wine keeps the cork wet. Some say that this causes the

classic smell of “cork” in wine. In actual fact, keeping the cork in contact with the wine enhances its

elasticity thereby guaranteeing its continued effectiveness.

Another important factor in storing wine is how the bottles are arranged: the bottles should be

arranged at liberty by place of origin, type of wine, area of production, winery or vintage, using the

catalogue labels provided if desired. Arranging the bottles so that they can be easily identified and

selected prevents any accidental jolts which, like vibrations, can unsettle sediments and alter the

visual appearance of the wine for some time. Hence, try to move your bottles as little as possible,

allowing the wine to rest. Furthermore, don’t push the bottles so far back that they rest against the

rear wall of the cellar as this would not only interfere with the automatic defrosting function, the

water droplets collected during defrosting could also ruin the bottle labels.

Bottle racks must be made from wood as this effectively absorbs any vibrations and keeps bottles

away from the wall transmitting heat or cold.

In addition, the bottles of wine must be stored away from substances or places with strong odours

which can be easily absorbed by the wine. To this end, your new appliance has an active carbon

filter to absorb any impurities in the air.
