Wine is a living product that evolves over time. For optimal and correct storage
there are 5 golden rules that are important to follow; correct and constant temperature,
correct humidity, protection from sunlight, odor protection and low vibration.
Correct and constant temperature
Correct and constant temperature is essential for proper wine storage. In general,
all wines can be stored at a constant temperature of 10-12 degrees. This will be
a good temperature for all types of wine. If you want to differentiate the temperature
and have the wine stored at a correct serving temperature, white wine will be stored
best at 6-12 degrees, and red wine 14-16 degrees. The temperature also must be
as constant as possible over time.
Humidity
The wine cork can over time by dry and start to pull in air, and can over time destroy
the wine. For the cork not to dry, it is important to have a proper humidity
in the wine cellars. Proper humidity is at least 50%. All our wine cellars has 50-70% humidity.
Light sensitivity
Wine is sensitive to light. Light can speed up the maturation process of the wine. Therefore,
it is important to protect the wine against light. All our glass doors have UV protection.
The interior lighting in the cellars is of LED which will not affect the wine.
Odor
Odor may penetrate the corks on the wine, and impair the quality of the win. Our interior,
wooden shelves are therefore untreated and completely odourless.
Vibration
Vibration over time will be harmful to the wine. The low vibration in our wine cellars is among the best in the market!
