Storage advice

For optimal storage of the White Wine (Vigneti del Vulture Pipoli Greco Fiano 2023):

- Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature between 45°F and 50°F (7°C to 10°C) suitable for preserving the wine’s freshness and aromatic profile. If the wine is fuller-bodied you may store it slightly warmer up to about 53°F (12°C) but avoid higher temperatures to prevent premature aging.

- Light Exposure: Store the bottle in a dark place away from direct sunlight and strong artificial light to prevent UV damage that can degrade the wine’s flavors and color.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle’s cork or screw cap is intact and airtight to prevent oxidation. For opened bottles reseal tightly with the original cork or a vacuum stopper to slow down oxidation and preserve freshness for up to a few days.

- Bottle Position: Store unopened bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist which prevents it from drying out and shrinking ensuring an effective seal. Opened bottles should be stored upright to minimize the surface area exposed to air.

- Humidity: Maintain a humidity level around 60–70% to keep corks from drying and shrinking while avoiding mold growth. This is important for long-term storage of bottled wine with cork closures.

- Additional Tips: Avoid temperature fluctuations and vibrations which can harm wine quality. Use a dedicated wine fridge or a consistently cool dark cellar to maintain steady conditions. For opened bottle preservation refrigeration at recommended white wine serving temperatures (42–50°F) is advised.

These practices will best preserve the quality and longevity of this white wine both before and after opening.
