Storage advice
For Rosé Wine the optimal storage conditions are:
- Temperature: Store between 10°C and 12°C (50°F to 54°F). Avoid temperature fluctuations to prevent expansion and contraction of the wine which can damage quality. Long-term storage temperature stability is crucial.
- Light Exposure: Store in a dark place away from direct and UV light to prevent degradation of color and flavor.
- Sealing: Keep the bottle sealed with its original cork in good condition. Maintain a humidity level of around 60-70% to prevent the cork from drying out which could lead to oxidation.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist by contact with the wine preventing it from drying out and shrinking.
- Humidity: Maintain humidity between 60-70% to avoid cork drying or mold development. Too much humidity can cause mold or damage labels while too little dries out corks.
- Special Tips: Handle bottles carefully; avoid shaking to prevent oxidation. Rosé wines are generally not intended for long aging and should be consumed within a couple of years from production to preserve freshness.
- Opened Bottles: After opening reseal tightly (preferably with a wine stopper) and store in the refrigerator at around 4-7°C (39-45°F) to preserve freshness for 2-3 days. Avoid temperature fluctuations and light exposure during this period.
These guidelines help maintain the quality and shelf life of rosé wine both unopened and after opening.
