Description:

 

 Have you just been trying to save up a nice collection of your own wines without a cellar? Here are some tips to keep your wine fine for as long as you want.  Remember "drink no wine before it's time"  'It's time, it's time".

 

How to Store Your Wine

Basically, you should try to keep your wine in a cool, damp location.

 

Optionally store red wine at 60°F and store whites at 50°F. If you're a lover of champagne too, store that at 45°F to prevent an explosion when you open the bottle. Be sure to store rosés with your white wines.

 

No space for a wine cellar? No problem! You can store the wine in a cool place inside the closet, or even under your bed! The basement, that nook by the stairway.

 

Something that people don't realize: Wine should be kept on its side. It keeps the cork moist so that it won't dry and shrink, thus making your wine more susceptible to the dangerous oxygen.

Salute
