13℃ and between 55% to 75% humidity. To maintain this environment you must isolate
your cellar from any conditions that would compromise these desired ranges.
3. In the process of cooling a room, air-conditioners and refrigerator driers out the air. They
are designed to perform properly in the 12℃-13℃ and 55% to 75% humidity range.
Because of this, it is necessary to buy refrigeration units designed specifically for wine
cooler if you want to maintain the proper environment.
4. Moderate humidity is important so as to keep the corks in good resilient condition and
there by preventing them from shrinking. A relative humidity of 50%-80% is the
acceptable range, but about 70% is recommended. Excessive humidity will not harm the
wine but will cause the corks to dry out, lose their elasticity and there by allow air to get
into the bottle.
5. Constant vibration form machinery or a nearby road disturbs red wine's sediment and can
be harmful to all wine. This is not commonly a problem in the average home as dangerous
extremes are rare and obvious. It should be remembered that excessive sound creates
vibrations that may be harmful as well.
6. Wines should be stored in such a way that you don't have to move them around to get at a
particular bottle. Once a wine is laid down, it should stay there until it is opened.
7. The space should be free from smells and debris. Extraneous smells can enter through the
cork and contaminate the wine. Proper ventilation will help with this problem and keep
the cellar from giving the wine a musty taste. Finally debris that could be a home to
insects that might infect the corks-untreated wood, food should be removed. Never store
fruits, vegetables, cheese or any food that is capable of fermenting.
8. Table wine is stored horizontally so that the wine stays in contact with the cork. This
keeps the cork moist there by preventing air from entering the wine. Fortified wines other
than port, are stored standing. If bottles are stored with the labels up, it will be easier to
see the deposit of sediment that forms on the opposite side of the bottle when it comes
time to open it.
