Placing bottles in the refrigerator

Storage examples

Practical tips for storing wine

Unpack bottles of wine – do not leave in crates
or cardboard boxes – before storing
in the refrigerator compartment.
Place old bottles so that the cork is always wet.
There should never be an air gap between
the wine and the cork.
The open bottle shelves are especially suitable
because they do not interrupt the air circulation.
As a result, the atmospheric humidity which
condenses on the bottles quickly dries again.
Before the wine is drunk, it should be "warmed
up" (chambré): Place e.g. rosé wine on the table
approx. 2–5 hours before drinking, red wine 4–
5 hours before drinking. The wine will then be at
the correct drinking temperature. Sparkling wine
and Champagne should be cooled
in the refrigerator shortly before drinking.
Remember that wine should always be cooled
slightly lower than the ideal serving temperature,
as its temperature increases as soon as it is
poured into a glass!
