Purpose

• If you want to keep wine for long, proper storage
  is essential. Getting the right option for wine
  storage can help preserve the integrity of the
  wine. Proper short or long-term storage of wine
  bottles needs a consistent temperature, minimal
  levels of UV light, and should be stored in an
  area that is free from vibration and with some
  level of humidity control.

• Maintain 45 to 65 Humidity Level
• If the wine is stored in a place that has high
  levels of humidity, it can cause the cork to
  mould while severe dry conditions can dry it out
  and perhaps oxidise the wine. Thus, store wine in
  a place that gets some humidity but not too much
  like a steam room.

• Store Wine Between 8 16C
• Wine stored at very high temperatures above 18C
  will age more rapidly or even risk getting
  cooked a state wherein wine loses its
  vitality and acquires flat flavours. Conversely,
  if wine is stored in very cool temperatures, then
  it will dry out the cork and permit oxygen to
  reach the wine, which oxidises it and make it
  undrinkable.

• Keep Away from Temperature Fluctuations
• It is very important to protect your wine from
  temperature fluctuations. Wine needs to be always
  stored in a consistent atmosphere. Temperature
  fluctuations can cause the wine bottle to enlarge
  and shrink, facilitating oxygen to reach the wine
  causing it to age more rapidly or even causing
  the wine to get cooked or lose flavours (original
  taste) and aromas (smell).

• Avoid Vibration
• Store your wine in a place that is free from
  vibrations. For example, dont place your wine
  racks near your washing machine because the
  vibration from the spin cycle can impact a wine.
• Lay Bottles Down with Corks on their Side
• If youre buying wine bottles with natural cork,
  then you should store them on their side. This
  position facilitates the wine in the bottle to
  keep the corks moist, blocking oxygen from
  reaching the wine. Ignore this tip if youre
  buying wine bottles with synthetic corks or screw
  caps.

• The Bottom Line
• When you store wine appropriately for both short
  and long-term, it safeguards the investment you
  made. Besides, making sure your wine is stored in
  suitable conditions helps keep the wine at its
  best until the day when youre ready to open the
  cork and relish it!
