Among the most popular drinks in the world, wine is considered by many to be the quintessential companion for a good meal. If you are among these, either as a true connoisseur or just one who enjoys the occasional glass, then you must be concerned with the proper storage of your wines.
Wine that is stored correctly is able to mature in a natural manner. Proper storage also helps to preserve the robust flavor of the vino. A wine's quality can be compromised by many factors such as exposure to light, the storage angle of the bottle, and the temperature and humidity levels at which the wine is stored. Any of these factors can impact the taste of the wine. Additionally, the value of the wine can be affected as well.
Wooden Wine Cabinet
One of the preferred methods for storing is utilizing a wine cabinet. A wine cabinet is a component specifically built for the purpose of storing wine. They are designed to create the optimum storage conditions to safeguard the quality of your wine, enhancing your overall wine experience. Wine cabinets are available in many different styles, shapes, sizes and designs. With such a varied selection on the market, it isn't too difficult to find a wine cabinet to match almost any décor or budget. So, no matter the size of your wine collection, there is a good chance of finding a wine cabinet to meet your needs.
One of the critical elements to consider when selecting a wine cabinet is the angle of storage the cabinet provides. Ideally, you want your wine to be stored at enough of an angle to allow the cork to remain wet. This helps to maintain a full seal and keeps the wine from being exposed to air. Also, consider the sturdiness and strength of the cabinet. A bottle of wine will usually weigh between 3 and 4 lbs. and you want a cabinet that will be strong enough to sufficiently support the weight of the bottles. As well, be sure the door shuts properly and seal completely so that no light is allowed in.
Another feature found on some wine storage cabinets is a cooling system to control the temperature and humidity within the cabinet. Storing wine at the appropriate temperature can help to preserve the longevity of the wine. Of course, the addition of a refrigeration system adds considerably to the cost of the unit. If you are looking at a cabinet that does not have a cooling system make sure to check the amount of insulation built into the cabinet. Insulation will provide at least some additional protection.
Wine cabinets are available in a variety of materials. Traditional models are constructed of wood such as redwood, mahogany, or oak. However, contemporary cabinets can be found in many different materials including stainless steel, wrought iron, and other metals. With so many options, your wine cabinet can not only serve its purpose of storing and protecting your wine, it can also be a unique and striking piece of furniture for your home.
