Wine storage small coup

Whether good or bad wine preserved, not only directly affect its taste. Of the collectors who also determines the potential of wine appreciation. In general, the preservation of wine should pay attention to the following: temperature, humidity, light and vibration.

The first important factor is temperature. The best wine storage temperature should be around 13 ℃. Best to keep the temperature constant, otherwise the quality of wine will have a great harm. As the temperature increases, the wine will shorten the maturity time, the flavor of wine will become more rough, and possibly because of excessive deterioration caused by oxidation of wine.

The major impact of the role of moisture in the cork, humidity is generally 60% to 70% more appropriate. Humidity is too low, the cork will become dry and affect the sealing effect, so that more air and alcohol exposure, speed up the oxidation of the wine, resulting in decreased quality of the wine. Of course, the humidity is not too good, moldy cork will spoil the wine.

The ultraviolet light damage to the wine is great, but also speed up the process of alcohol oxidation is one culprit, so you want long-term preservation of the wine must be put dark place.

Wine in a bottle, the change is a slow process, accelerate the maturity of vibration will make the wine, of course, is it helps the wine turned rough. So it should be placed away from the vibration of the place, and not always moving.

There is the placing of the bottle. We all know that wine should be placed horizontally, in fact, the mouth upward of 15 degrees is possible. For longer need to store wine bottle down the display is not desirable. Because there will be a long time wine storage precipitation, flat or slightly tilted upward bottle, precipitation will gather in the bottom of the bottle; downward-sloping if bottle, precipitation will be gathered in the bottleneck, will be stuck in a long time there, pouring time, will be poured into the cup with even precipitation affect the wine's taste.

As has been opened but have not finished bottle of wine, the ideal approach is to first bottle of air pumped in, and then stuffed with cork, so you can save a week. More economical approach is to drink the leftover wine for the vial and let the bottle deposit not live air, can save another 24 hours. However, already opened bottle of wine, or drinking as soon as possible, because the longer kept, the loss of its flavor faster.
