For storing white wine (such as a 2023 vintage Malvasia Puntinata) maintain an optimal temperature between 45°F and 50°F (7°C to 10°C); fuller-bodied whites may be stored slightly warmer up to around 55°F (13°C) while lighter crisper whites prefer the cooler end of this range.

Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light which can degrade the wine by causing premature aging.

Seal the bottle well with its original cork; avoid letting the cork dry out by limiting how long an opened bottle stays in a regular fridge as dry corks can lead to oxidation and spoilage.

Store the bottle horizontally to keep the cork moist and ensure a proper seal which helps prevent air ingress and oxidation.

Maintain a relative humidity level around 70% to keep corks supple and prevent evaporation or cork shrinkage.

Avoid temperature fluctuations to prevent expansion and contraction of the wine and cork which can compromise the seal and affect wine quality.

For an opened bottle reseal tightly and store in the refrigerator at the serving temperature range (around 45°F to 50°F). Consume within a few days to a week to preserve freshness.

Avoid long-term storage in a standard household refrigerator as the dry environment can damage corks; a wine cooler or dedicated cellar with humidity control is ideal.
