![]() The basement should be lighted very poorly so that there is no oxidation, which experts call “the taste of light.” If you have a large collection, you can create a catalog indicating where the wine is stored. You should place the bottles so that it is easy to find the desired sort and move the containers with wine less often. The bottles of wine should be stored in a horizontal position so that the cork is constantly in contact with the wine.It is desirable to provide a ventilation system without a motor to avoid vibration. The air must be ventilated and not static. Ventilation is another aspect of the proper storage of wine.Therefore, it is unacceptable to place cans of paint or cans of gasoline beside them, as well as food with a strong flavor – cheese and ham. Smells can also penetrate into the bottle of wine.Well, if you have already placed wine containers for storage, then you should not start a major renovation in the room, which serves as a cellar. All designs for the storage of bottles of wine should be located at a sufficient distance from the refrigerator or any other apparatus with an engine. Although wine can not “hear”, but noises, sound, and mechanical vibration can cause a change in its quality. It is necessary to take care of noise insulation.It is necessary to maintain optimum humidity: it should not be excessive, since in this case mold may occur and the wine will get an unpleasant smell of dampness, but it should not be below 80%, since dryness affects the corks that compress and begin to flow air.Therefore, the presence of a thermometer, which is always at hand, is a must in the wine cellar. Conversely, lower temperatures spoil the taste and change the color of the wine, making it cloudy. If the temperature is higher, the white wines begin the fermentation, the red ones turn sour. It is very important to maintain a constant temperature of 8 ° C to 18 ° C, an average ideal temperature of 12 ° C all year round. ![]() If you put young wine even in the most perfectly equipped home cellar with the goal of tasting it after many years, the quality of the wine can be very disappointing, it will surely be spoiled. The taste of wine over the years only improves with those wines that are sustained in wooden containers (oak barrels), and only after that are poured over glass bottles.Decorative lighting allows you to keep the wine cellar dark, which is necessary for stored wines and creates an atmosphere of mystery, solitude and dormancy for visitors
