Grape wine is not like to the other drinks. It is a special drinks and constantly evolving over time.
Storing and preserving wine properly will create the perfect taste and value for each bottle.
Thus, during storage, we should note the following important points:
Placing a bottle: Bottle should be place. Air is the biggest enemy of a good wine and the impact it makes the wine turns into vinegar.
Temperature: The ideal temperature for wine storage type is from 12-16 Celsius. However, at any temperature from 5-18C (40-65F) is good as long as it is always constant (always with the stability of the temperature for a long time). White wines are affected by temperature than red wine
Humidity: Relative humidity is 50-80% and at 70% is acceptable. Low humidity will cause the cork from drying out and losing elasticity easily. It will lead to let air in the bottle. This happens even when the bottle horizontally. The easiest way is treated bucket of water to put it evaporate and raise the humidity. If the humidity is too high, it will not harm the wine. But the damage label wine for paper and paperboard carton labels easily damaged. If you keep the wine to drink, they may be but it also reduces the aesthetic value of it. Especially, you use wine with friends for the party. In general: humidity 50-80% relative humidity is acceptable, but ideally 70%.
Sunlight and ultraviolet: The light will make the wine aging sooner. These brightly colored bottles easily affected by light. For UV, even darker bottles are also affected. Ultraviolet light will cause damage to wine because it breaks the structure of organic compounds, especially tannins in wine. Tannins (an acid) have a protective effect on the heart. It boosts process of production HDL protein and reduces the amount of cholesterol which is a dangerous LDL-derived proteins are common. The organic compounds in wine build an aroma composition, taste and other structures of the wine. Without them, the wine will be flat, thin and lightweight. Care for ultraviolet especially for sparkling wine because it is sensitive to light than other wines. Use incandescent bulbs or sodium vapor lamps are better for a cellar than the light of fluorescent lamps. Should your wine cellar in a dark place / wine cabinet should put in place less affected by sunlight
Position: Find an area with a constant temperature; this is the most important factor that you can control your wines for aging right age
Quiet: The constant vibration from machinery, noise, nearby such as railways, roads noise will disturb the sediment in the bottle of wine. The bottles were shaken. It's like catching it stand up once a day. Anything like that just helps speed up chemical reactions occurring inside the bottle and not in a good way.
Clean, airy: Place clean, airy limits unpleasant odors and harmful bacteria, alters the taste of alcohol.
The choice of wine in a clean environment, helping bottles still remain high, non-peeling label pasted on the surface. Besides, the cork will not be affected and possessed strange smell alcohol
