Effective Guide to Wine Storage Conditions

Wine is a living matter in which the conservation conditions are influenced on its maintenance and the evolution of its balance. It is appropriate to underline some essential, but simple, technical criteria for the correct storage and preservation of wine. In the case of having an independent premise, must allow the space to breathe and contribute to maintaining the right degree of humidity. The relative humidity of your wine cellar should be between 55% and 75%. In a too dry cellar, the plugs may become dry, while an excessively humid one presents the danger of altering the corks and labels due to the appearance of molds. The temperature will range between 14-16°C and will be, where possible, constant. In a cellar where the temperature is too high, the wine tends to evolve more rapidly, and this can result in premature aging. A cellar too cold will inhabit the wine. Frequent exposure to light is detrimental for a wines development. Cellars should be enclosed and the wine will only see the light when you visit. It is necessary that the bottles are not subjected to vibrations from outside or gases. Locating your cellar in a storage room in the underground garage is a wrong decision because, in addition to many vibrations from vehicle traffic, garages under buildings are places with many gases, such as carbon monoxide or radon, dangerous even for human health. The bottles are always stored on shelves arranged along the walls of the cellar or in rows facing the centre. These shelves are subdivided into "alveoli," if possible metal, wood, cement, or volcanic stone, light materials that keep the temperature constant and attenuate possible vibrations.
