Storage advice

For optimal storage of white wine:

- Temperature: Store unopened bottles between 42°F and 55°F (7°C to 13°C). Lean toward the cooler end (42-50°F) for lighter crisper whites and slightly warmer (50-55°F) for fuller-bodied whites. Consistency is key; avoid temperature fluctuations that can cause cork failure and spoilage.

- Light exposure: Keep the wine in a dark place away from direct or UV light to prevent degradation and premature aging.

- Sealing: Ensure the bottle is properly sealed with its original cork. For opened bottles use a wine stopper or vacuum seal to minimize oxygen exposure which can degrade the wine quickly.

- Bottle position: Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork moist preventing it from drying out and letting air in.

- Humidity: Maintain a relative humidity around 70% to keep corks from shrinking or molding which preserves the seal and quality.

- Opened bottles: After opening reseal and store in the refrigerator at around 40-45°F (4-7°C) and consume within a few days to best preserve freshness.

No additional special handling is typically required beyond these practices for white wine to maintain its quality and extend shelf life.
