Please load the different types of wine according to the following arrangement from
top to bottom.
Storing Wine in Your Wine Cooler
One benefit of your new wine cooler is that you can simulate the conditions of a
wine cellar.
By using a wine cooler thermometer you can ensure a constant temperature of
around 8°C - 18°C, which is ideal for storing wine. Make sure that the bottles are
lying on their sides. This ensures that the wine inside is in contact with the cork,
which stops the cork drying out, shrinking, letting air in and spoiling the wine. After
a bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air which will start to
oxidise the wine. This generally occurs on the wine's contact surface, leaving the
remaining wine in good condition. By leaving your bottle standing, you minimise the
surface area of the wine which is in contact with air.
If you're serving white, rose or sparkling wine, chill it lightly for at least 2 hours in
the wine cooler before serving. Most reds should be served at room temperature,
or in the case of lighter reds like Beaujolais, very slightly chilled.
Opened wine will remain in good condition for up to 2 days (for delicate whites), or
3 days (for rich reds), as long as the bottle is resealed and stored in your wine
cooler. Special stoppers that keep sparkling wine and champagne bubbling for 1 or 2
days after opening can be bought at most good wine shops. When storing leftover
wine, attempt to minimise the oxidation process of the wine. You can use a
'vacuum' which pumps out the air in the bottle leaving a semi-vacuum. The wine
should last for about two weeks.
However, if it is a good quality wine and you intend to finish it within one week, all
you'll need to do is to replace the cork and leave it standing in your wine cooler.
Different wines are best kept at different temperatures.
