Bottle Orientation - Try and lay your wine or spirit on its side when you can.
Stillness - Try to disturb your bottles as infrequently as possible.
Light Levels - All wine, Needs to be kept out of direct sunlight and away from any potential UV rays.
Humidity - Long-term storage of wine requires a humidity level between 50-85%, as this will also help keep the cork in a good condition.
Temperature - The best temperature for storing red wine is between 10c & 13c. White between 11c & 15c.
Spirits, Brandies & Cognac
Like wine, spirits (especially barrel-aged spirits) benefit from being kept out of sunlight and are best kept in cool conditions to help prevent evaporation.
Like wine,spirits can be stored in quite a range of humidity – around 50–80% relative humidity – and as long as that humidity is constant, the corks shouldn’t expand and contract, and the seal should last. However, the closer to 80% you get, the more likely corks – and labels – will be affected.
We suggest trying to find a happy medium for both wine and spirits to be stored in the same place, with a relative humidity of around 60–70%.
