Wine is often described as if it is a living thing, and with good reason \u2013 the right conditions can make the difference between a perfect glass, and a waste of your time and money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But storing wine at home doesn\u2019t have to be difficult, it just needs a little know-how.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understand the Impact of Temperature<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wine thrives in a precise temperature range, with the ideal being between <\/span>10\u00b0C and 15\u00b0C<\/b> (<\/span>source<\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Anything above 20\u00b0C risks prematurely ageing the wine, while temperatures below 7\u00b0C can dull its development.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fluctuations are particularly damaging, causing the liquid to expand and contract, which can compromise the cork’s seal. Over time, this allows oxygen to seep in, spoiling the wine.<\/span><\/p>\n
