Storage advice
For optimal storage of the white wine:
- Temperature: Store consistently between 45°F and 50°F (7°C to 10°C) to preserve freshness crispness and aromatic qualities. Avoid temperature fluctuations to prevent premature aging and cork failure.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark environment away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light which can degrade the wine quality.
- Sealing: Ensure the cork or closure remains intact and moist to prevent oxidation. Avoid long-term storage in a regular fridge as it can dry out the cork.
- Bottle Position: Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist and airtight maintaining a proper seal.
- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity (around 60-70%) to prevent cork drying and shrinkage which can allow air ingress.
- Special Tips for Unopened Bottles: Avoid vibration and strong odors. Use a dedicated wine fridge or cool cellar for best results.
- Opened Bottles: Once opened reseal tightly and store in a refrigerator at around 45°F. Consume within 1–3 days for optimal freshness as white wines lose aromatic and flavor integrity quickly after opening.
These measures help prolong shelf life and preserve the intended quality of the white wine.
