Wine is more than just a glass that pairs perfectly with your dinner. It is a drink that can make conversations flow, bring people together, and add warmth to the memories being created. If you are only getting into wine, or already a seasoned wine connoisseur, you must know that wine’s greatest pleasure is collecting a library that is unique to your tastes. As you go about adding to your collection, however, it becomes important to pay attention to how you store your wine. After all, even the world’s best bottle can go bad if not kept correctly. 

Here, we share five tips to preserving your passion and the best MODENA products to help you get the wine collection of your dreams. 

Store Wine at the Proper Temperature 

Temperature plays a significant role in preserving the quality of your stored wine. Too warm or too cold, and your wine will spoil. For most, the ideal temperature for short-term and long-term storage is in the range of 13°C but may vary from one wine to another. It is also important to never store your wine below -4°C, which can freeze your wine, or above 20°C, which can expedite the aging process. 

But what if you have different types of wine? Fortunately, our Wine Cooler series is designed with Dual Zone Compartment system, which allows you to adjust the temperature of each chamber according to your wine type. Versatile storage in one product.

Store Wine at the Proper Humidity 

Aside from temperature, having the right humidity is also important in influencing your wine’s longevity. Dry corks caused by too low humidity may leave your wine prone to oxidation, which will spoil its taste. 

Some of our Wine Cooler series, such as WC 0460 XASS, are equipped with Active Carbon Deodorizer to reduce excess humidity and neutralize odors to keep your wine in prime storage condition. The Triple Layer Glass With Low-E also fends off condensation, which allows a clearer view and prevents your wine labels from peeling off.

Protect Your Wine from Light 

It comes as no surprise that exposure to UV rays can damage your wine’s aroma and taste. Whether you’re storing wine for one week, one month, or one year, it should always be kept in a cool, dry, and dark place. 

Our Wine Cooler series is built with Anti UV glass, which does a perfect job at repelling sunlight. The technology is also capable of ensuring the stability of your storage temperature, which as mentioned above, is crucial in keeping the quality of your wine.

Place Your Wine Bottles Horizontally 

Another key to longer-lasting wine? Keeping them on their sides. Horizontally placed bottles help keep the corks moist, reducing the chance for premature aging and seepage. 

At MODENA, our Wine Cooler series offers a wide range of storage capacity, from WC 1022 L that can hold up to 22 bottles to WC 2154 S that can keep up to 154 bottles – standard Bordeaux bottle sizes of 0.75L. Most models are also built with Reversible Door, allowing you to easily adjust the product’s opening to your space.
