Storage advice
For optimal storage of white wine particularly a dry white like Chardonnay:
- Temperature: Store at a consistent temperature between 45°F and 55°F (7°C - 13°C) ideally close to 53°F (12°C) for Chardonnay to maintain its delicate fruit and floral aromas. Avoid fluctuations to prevent cork damage and oxidation.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light to prevent premature aging and flavor deterioration.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle remains sealed with its original cork which should be kept moist by storing the bottle on its side; a dried cork can lead to oxidation.
- Bottle Position: Store the bottle horizontally to keep the cork moist maintaining a tight seal and preventing air ingress.
- Humidity: Maintain humidity around 70% to prevent corks from drying out while avoiding mold. Too low humidity dries corks; too high promotes mold growth[general wine storage knowledge].
- Opened Bottles: Once opened reseal tightly with a stopper and store in the refrigerator at serving temperature (around 45-50°F). Consume within 2-3 days to preserve freshness.
- Special Tips: Avoid storing white wine in a standard refrigerator for extended periods as it can dry out the cork; instead use a dedicated wine fridge or cool dark cellar space with stable temperature and humidity.
