For storing Champagne Rosé optimally adhere to the following practical guidelines:

- Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature ideally between 7°C and 13°C (45°F–55°F). Short-term refrigeration at 6-9°C (43°F–48°F) is fine before serving but avoid long-term storage in the fridge as it can dry out the cork.

- Light Exposure: Store the bottle in a dark place to prevent light-induced oxidation which can spoil the beverage. Avoid direct sunlight and fluorescent lighting.

- Sealing: For an unopened bottle ensure the cork remains intact and moist by proper temperature and position storage. For opened bottles use a vacuum champagne stopper to preserve bubbles and minimize oxidation.

- Bottle Position: Store the bottle on its side if keeping it for long-term to keep the cork moist and maintain a good seal. For short-term storage (under a month) after opening store the bottle upright to minimize air exposure.

- Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity around 70-75% to keep the cork from drying out but avoid excessive moisture that could damage labels or packaging.

- Minimize Vibrations: Keep the bottle in a stable environment away from vibrating household appliances like washing machines and dishwashers to preserve quality and bubble integrity.

For unopened bottles this will help maintain freshness for up to about 2-3 years before the flavor deteriorates. For opened bottles seal tightly with a vacuum stopper refrigerate upright and consume within 3-5 days for best preservation of bubbles and taste.
