Purchasing a good wine and not looking after it properly is like buying a sports car and leaving it outside all winter. Good wines repay handsomely if cellared under proper conditions. The size and design of your cellar is up to you; it is only relative to the money you are willing to invest. We recommend you sample one bottle of wine at a time and then decide if it is worth cellaring.
Storing wine is relatively simple:
- Keep it in a dark place and at a temperature of 12°
- 15° Celsius.
- Avoid changing temperatures. Small fluctuations are acceptable but must never exceed 22° Celsius.
- In any case, it is better to have a cellar too cool than too warm since warm temperatures accelerate aging.
- Any area of your basement away from heat sources will do.
- If you do not have a basement, use a cool, dark cupboard.
- Allow enough space to lie the bottles down in order to prevent the cork from getting dry; shrinking corks let air into the bottle.
- Champagne can either be stored upright or lying down.
- Once your space has been selected, you can build your wine racks: use cardboard wine boxes, wooden wine boxes or build custom cabinets.
