Important information about temperature
Your unit has been designed to guarantee optimum conditions for storing and/
or serving your wines. Fine wines require long and gentle developments and need
specific conditions in which to reach their full potential.
All wines mature at the same temperature, which is a con st ant temperature set
between 1 1 ºC to 14 ºC. Only the temperature of "dégustation " (wine apprecia-
tion) varies according to the type of wines (see the Wine Serving Temperature
Chart as above). This being said and as it is for natural cellars used by wine pro-
ducers for long period of storage, it is not the exact temperature that is important,
but its consistency. In other words, as long as the temperature of your win e cellar
is constant (between 1 1 ºC to 14ºC , or 52 °F to 57 °F ) your wines will be stored
under perfect conditions.
Not all wines will improve over the years. Some should be consumed at an early
stage (2 to 3 years) while others have tremendous ageing capability (50 years and
over). All win es have a peak in maturity. Check with your wine merchant to get the
relevant information.
At too high a temperature (over 22 °C) wine matures too quickly, which prevents
the aromas from developing further. Wine cannot mature fully at too low a tem-
perature (below 5 °C).
Fluctuations in temperature put wine under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to maintain a constant temperature.
