Storage advice
For storing white wine maintain a temperature range between 45°F and 55°F (7°C to 13°C) ideally around 50°F (10°C to 13°C) to preserve delicate aromas and prevent premature aging. Consistency in temperature is crucial to avoid expansion and contraction that can compromise the bottle seal.
Store the bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist which helps maintain an airtight seal and prevents oxidation. This also aids in preserving the wine's quality over time.
Ensure humidity levels stay between 60% and 70% to avoid cork drying or mold growth. This range protects the cork’s integrity and prevents air ingress or spoiling.
Protect bottles from light exposure especially UV rays by storing in a dark environment or a cellar with low light. Prolonged exposure to direct or strong light causes premature aging or “lightstrike” which degrades the wine’s quality.
For unopened bottles maintaining these conditions will ensure optimal preservation. Once opened white wine should be resealed tightly and stored in a refrigerator at around 40°F (4°C) to slow oxidation. Consume opened bottles within a few days for best quality.
Avoid temperature fluctuations and vibrations. A stable vibration-free environment prevents premature chemical changes and sediment disturbance.
In summary:
- Temperature: 45–55°F (7–13°C) consistent
- Humidity: 60–70%
- Bottle position: Horizontal to keep cork moist
- Light: Keep away from UV and direct light store in dark
- Sealing: Ensure cork or stopper is tight; for opened bottles reseal and refrigerate
- Vibration: Minimize to prevent sediment disturbance and aging acceleration
These conditions are specifically suited to white wines and will help maintain freshness and quality during storage.
