Tips for storing wine
■ Unpack wine bottles – do not store in crates or
cartons in the wine storage compartment.
■ If bottles with natural corks are stored for longer
than 4 weeks, the natural corks may shrink if the
humidity is too low.
To prevent this from happening, store old wine
bottles in such a way that the cork is kept wet
and increase the humidity.
~ "Humidity" on page 10
■ The open bottle shelves allow continuous air
circulation. As a result, excess humidity is quickly
removed.
■ Before the wine is enjoyed, it should be slowly
warmed up (chambré): take e.g. rosé wine out of
the appliance approx. 2–5 hours before drinking,
and red wine 4–5 hours before drinking. This will
ensure that the wine is at the correct drinking
temperature. White wine, on the other hand,
should be placed on the table just before
drinking. Sparkling wine and champagne should
be chilled in the refrigerator for a short while
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.
