•
The most important thing when storing wine is that the storage temperature
remains continuously stable.
•
Vibrations, temperature fluctuations, light exposure and humidity are factors
that can cause wine to tip. Proper storage not only preserves the quality of the
wine, but also improves its aroma, flavour and complexity as it matures.
•
Wine that is stored at a higher temperature matures faster. Wines that are
stored at more than 18 °C lose flavour and aroma.
•
If wine is stored at too low a temperature, this can lead to the development of
harmful residues. A humidity of
60 % - 70 % is ideal to prevent corks from shrinking.
•
After a wine bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air. It is
therefore recommended to store the remaining wine upright in the bottle to
minimise the surface area that comes into contact with air.
•
Once a wine bottle has been opened, white wines can still be drunk for 2 days and
red wines for 3 days, as long as the bottle has been sealed. Make sure that the
wine bottle has been closed tightly again.
•
Special stoppers that keep wine and champagne fresh are available for
purchase in most wine shops.
•
Provided that white wine is stored correctly, it can be kept for up to 2 years.
Full-bodied red wines can be stored for up to 10 years and dessert wines for
up to 20 years.
