  2. Purpose • If you want to keep wine for long, proper storage is essential. Getting the right option for wine storage can help preserve the integrity of the wine. Proper short or long-term storage of wine bottles needs a consistent temperature, minimal levels of UV light, and should be stored in an area that is free from vibration and with some level of humidity control.

Wine Storage Tips • Maintain 45% to 65% Humidity Level • If the wine is stored in a place that has high levels of humidity, it can cause the cork to mould while severe dry conditions can dry it out and perhaps oxidise the wine. Thus, store wine in a place that gets some humidity but not too much like a steam room. • Protect from UV Light • Store wine in a dark place where it does not receive any light, especially UV light.

Wine Storage Tips • Store Wine Between 8° & 16°C • Wine stored at very high temperatures above 18°C will age more rapidly or even risk getting ‘cooked’ – a state wherein wine loses its vitality and acquires flat flavours. Conversely, if wine is stored in very cool temperatures, then it will dry out the cork and permit oxygen to reach the wine, which oxidises it and make it undrinkable.

Wine Storage Tips • Keep Away from Temperature Fluctuations • It is very important to protect your wine from temperature fluctuations. Wine needs to be always stored in a consistent atmosphere.

Wine Storage Tips • Avoid Vibration • Store your wine in a place that is free from vibrations. For example, don’t place your wine racks near your washing machine because the vibration from the spin cycle can impact a wine. • Lay Bottles Down with Corks on their Side • If you’re buying wine bottles with natural cork, then you should store them on their side. This position facilitates the wine in the bottle to keep the corks moist, blocking oxygen from reaching the wine. Ignore this tip if you’re buying wine bottles with synthetic corks or screw caps.
