Storage advice

For storing White Wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc 2023) follow these practical recommendations:

- Temperature: Keep the wine at a consistent temperature between 45°F and 50°F (7°C to 10°C) which preserves freshness and aroma and slows aging without halting it completely. Avoid fluctuations as they can cause cork failure and oxidation.

- Light Exposure: Store the bottle in a dark or low-light environment to prevent UV light from degrading the wine and causing unpleasant flavors. Avoid direct sunlight or strong artificial lights.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle remains properly sealed with its original cork to prevent air from entering and oxidizing the wine. If storing opened seal tightly with a wine stopper or vacuum seal to limit oxygen exposure.

- Bottle Position: Store bottles on their side so the wine stays in contact with the cork keeping it moist and preventing shrinkage that could allow air penetration.

- Humidity: Maintain humidity levels around 50-70% to keep corks from drying out and shrinking. Too low humidity may dry corks too high may encourage mold.

- Additional tips: Aim for a stable environment with minimal vibration and good air circulation to avoid premature aging and cork degradation. For opened bottles refrigeration at about 45°F (7°C) and recorking or sealing helps preserve the wine for up to 3-5 days.

These conditions—cool dark stable temperature with moderate humidity and proper sealing and orientation—will optimally preserve the quality and shelf life of white wine both unopened and once opened.
