Storage advice

For optimal storage of White Wine such as the given Blanco Málaga Muscat 2022 75cl maintain a consistent temperature between 45°F and 50°F (7°C to 10°C) to preserve its crispness and delicate flavors. Avoid temperatures above 55°F to prevent accelerated aging and avoid excessive cold that slows maturation too much.

Keep humidity levels in the range of 50% to 70% relative humidity ideally around 60% to keep the cork moist and prevent air from penetrating the bottle which would cause oxidation.

Store the bottle away from direct light especially sunlight and fluorescent lighting as light exposure can degrade the wine and alter its flavor.

Position the bottle horizontally if it has a cork closure; this keeps the cork in contact with the wine maintaining its moisture and airtight seal.

For unopened bottles maintain the above temperature and humidity conditions consistently avoiding fluctuations that can cause cork expansion and contraction leading to oxidation.

For opened bottles reseal tightly with the original cork or a wine stopper and store in the fridge at about 45°F (7°C). Consume opened white wine within 3-5 days for best preservation.

Ensure good air quality with minimal odors in the storage environment as wine can absorb strong smells through the cork over time.

In summary a cool dark humid and stable environment with horizontal bottle positioning and proper sealing will best preserve and extend the quality and shelf life of this white wine.
