Storage advice
For optimal storage of white wine specifically a Chardonnay:
- Temperature: Store between 50°F and 55°F (10-13°C) to preserve its delicate fruit and floral aromas without compromising its structure. Avoid temperature fluctuations as they can cause cork failure and spoilage.
- Light Exposure: Keep the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight or artificial light to prevent premature aging and degradation of flavors.
- Sealing: Ensure the bottle remains sealed with its original cork and that the cork stays moist; prolonged dryness can lead to oxidation. Do not store opened bottles for long without proper resealing.
- Bottle Position: Store the bottle on its side to keep the cork moist preventing it from drying out and air from entering.
- Humidity: Maintain humidity around 70% to keep the cork from shrinking and allowing air ingress while avoiding mold growth.
- Storage of Unopened Bottles: Store unopened bottles in a cool dark stable environment at 50-55°F with 70% humidity and horizontal position.
- Storage of Opened Bottles: After opening re-cork tightly and refrigerate. Consume within a few days to avoid oxidation. Avoid long refrigeration periods for unopened bottles as they may dry out the cork.
These practices help maintain the wine's freshness aroma and taste over time.
