Storage advice
For optimal storage of Vino Chinato which is an aromatized fortified wine maintain the following conditions:
- Temperature: Store unopened bottles in a cool place ideally between 10-15°C (50-59°F). Once opened refrigeration is recommended to preserve its aromatic complexity and slow oxidation.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle away from direct sunlight and bright artificial light to prevent degradation of flavors and color. A dark cupboard or cellar is ideal for unopened bottles.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed after every use to minimize oxidation. Use the original cork or a wine stopper designed to preserve aromatized wines.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles upright to minimize contact between the liquid and the cork which can help prevent cork degradation and contamination. Unlike many red wines aromatized fortified wines do not require horizontal storage.
- Humidity: Maintain a moderate humidity level around 60-70% to keep the cork from drying out especially if storing for long periods unopened.
- Special Storage Tips:
- After opening refrigerate Vino Chinato and consume within a few weeks for best flavor retention; although the high alcohol and sugar content offer some preservation the aroma and freshness deteriorate at room temperature.
- It is not designed for very long aging post-opening; prolonged exposure to air results in slow oxidation and a loss of vibrant aromas.
- Before opening it may benefit from some bottle aging (several months) to allow the infusion to integrate but store in optimal cool dark conditions during this period.
These practices will help maintain the quality and extend the shelf life of both unopened and opened bottles of Vino Chinato.
