Compact Wine Refrigerators are great for being able to keep your wine in prime condition ready for you to drink at your convenience.
When storing your wine one point that you need to remember and this is very important and that is to avoid fluctuations in temperature, this can have an adverse effect on your wine condition.
The ideal store temperatures for your different types of wine are as follows:
Red: Temperature between 55 & 60 degrees F
White: Temperature between 49 & 56 degrees F
Rose: Temperature between 49 & 51 degrees F
Champagne: Temperature between 53 & 59 degrees F
Although the above temperatures are specific to individual types of wine, it is safe to say that if you stored all of the above wines at a temperature of between 40 degrees & 65 degrees F that would certainly be an ideal storage temperature.
Unless you understand the basics of the relationship between temperature and wine you could be slowly destroying your wine collection. A few degrees temperature change over a period between summer and winter won’t make any difference to your wine condition, but a few degrees temperature change over a day most definitley will.
If you are currently storing your wine in an open space in the house then you are increasing the percentage chance of your wine being ruined. If you see a sticky deposit around the cork then this is a sign that your wine is being affected by temperature change. As the temperature where the wine is being stored continually changes then so the wine expands and contracts with the temperature change. this affects the performance of the cork. When the cork starts to break down this lets small amounts of air into the bottle and once this happens you may as well throw your expensive bottle of wine in the bin.
So we have discussed not how to store your wine, so storing your wine in a controlled temperature environment will definitley help the wine age which will enable you to truely benefit from the enjoyment of drinking the wine when you decide to do so.
