Bottle Wine Cellar

Bottle Wine Cellar

One of the great joys of wine is to choose a bottle of your wine cellar, perhaps one you've been storing for some years, remove the cork and enjoy it with friends. You can marvel at the changes brought on by maturity and, as a bonus, you can boast about the price paid and congratulate you on the selection of such a market!

However, wine is something evolving and how it is stored affect direct the speed and how it ages!

Storing wine is very simple ...

It requires a constant temperature, humidity, darkness, calm and well-ventilated and clean.

INSULATION

The key is to create a storage environment that provides the basics of stable temperature, no light and no vibration.

In general terms, 4 "(100mm) of polystyrene is the equivalent 3 feet (1 meter) of land. So if you try to choose between a building aboveground and underground cavern, you must be prepared to dig deep for the latter.

Your cupboard, indoor space or your outdoor construction must be well shaded, well insulated and with minimal air movement front and rear.

TEMPERATURE

The goal is to provide stored wines with a constant temperature between 50 ° F and 59 ° F (10 ° C 15 ° C.

Seasonal changes in temperature will not harm your wine, Although larger fluctuations in a degree a week should be avoided.

Wines subjected to temperatures exceeding 77 ° F (25 ° C), are in grave danger of degradation Fast.

Wines stored in less than ideal conditions will age at speeds quite different from those envisaged by winemakers when they offer schedules proposed for storage. A hygro thermometer provide accurate information to both temperature and humidity in your cellar.

A good wine cellar built above ground or dig a well, underground cellar will require a minimum of additional Although your temperature climate control or position of your cellar May require use of a cooling device that will bring stability to temperature full.

Another alternative is a wine cabinet temperature controlled. Some of them may contain up to 800 bottles, but note that some manufacturers suggested bottle capacity can be misleading, and the media may be smaller than you need. Bottles of champagne are larger than Riesling bottles!

Regard assembled wine as your best cooling block. A high density of wine bottles, reducing the temperature Wine fluctuations.

Consider keeping your long-term wines in a professional storage facility if your cellar can not conform to the ranges of temperature optimal.

HUMIDITY

A dry atmosphere is an enemy of the natural cork seal. A natural cork is compressed and forced into the bottle as a seal 100% natural.

Low humidity combined with a result of defective cork in wine moving out of the bottle (increasing ullage) and air naturally moving into the bottle.

Humidity is moderate important to keep the cap in good condition and prevent it from reducing resilient. Bottles with screw cap does not require moisture.

Excessive humidity will not harm the wine but can cause labels to go moldy. The ideal humidity for your cellar is 70%, but any where between 5080% is acceptable.

DARKNESS

Light will prematurely age a bottle of wine. Clear bottles are most sensitive to this problem, but UV light penetrates even dark colored glass.

UV light can damage wine by causing degradation of organic compounds also stable, especially the tannins found in wine. These organic compounds contribute to the aroma, flavor and structure of wine. Without them, the wine seems flat and thin.

So exposure to ultraviolet light results in unfavorable changes and irreversible in your wine.

Sparkling wines require special attention because they are more sensitive to light than other wines.

LAY IT DOWN!

Store your wine bottles horizontally so the wine is in contact with the cork. This keeps the cork moist. If the cork dries out and shrinks it to leave the air with your wine. Keep it with the label side up. This will help in three ways:

You can easily see what the wine is. You do not need to disturb the bottle to see what you have in your cellar.

Sediments forms on the opposite side of the label and make it easier to see.

The label is less likely to suffer damage. If you're storing wine as an investment, a damaged label will reduce the value.

Follow the above tips and you'll be on your way the creation of a cellar where wine is aging to perfection and a cellar that is the envy of your friends!
