Storage advice

For optimal storage of Marc de Bourgogne an eaux-de-vie distilled from grape pomace and aged in oak barrels the following practical recommendations apply:

- Temperature: Store at a stable cool temperature ideally between 12°C and 16°C (54°F to 61°F). Avoid temperature fluctuations which can degrade aroma and flavor compounds over time.

- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in complete darkness or dim light as ultraviolet (UV) and sunlight can cause oxidation and premature aging or flavor deterioration.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed with its original cork or cap to prevent evaporation of alcohol and ingress of air. Oxidation compromises spirit quality especially after opening.

- Bottle Position: Unlike wine Marc de Bourgogne should be stored upright to minimize contact of the spirit with the cork preventing cork drying and taint. Spirits with higher alcohol content can degrade cork if stored horizontally for long periods.

- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity (around 50-70%) to preserve cork integrity. Too dry an environment can cause cork shrinking and allow oxygen entry; too humid can promote mold—balanced cellar humidity is ideal.

- Special Storage Tips: Given that Marc de Bourgogne is aged in oak barrels and then bottled it benefits from slow gradual maturation. Once bottled avoid excessive agitation or temperature swings. For opened bottles reseal promptly and store upright in a cool dark place to reduce oxidation effects. Consumption within a reasonable timeframe after opening (several months) preserves optimal quality.

These conditions align with storing fine eaux-de-vie and ensure the spirit’s aromas and flavors remain vibrant and stable over the long term.
