Optimum temperature and air quality

Wine will continue to mature depending on the surrounding conditions. The length of time which wine can be kept in good condition will therefore depend not only on the temperature but also on the air quality.

The wine storage unit provides a constant temperature, increased humidity and an odor-free environment, creating the best possible storage conditions for your wine.

Temperature

Wine can be stored at temperatures between 41°F and 64°F (5 - 18°C). If you would like to store red and white wines together, choose a temperature between 50°F and 54°F (10 - 12 °C). Most white wines are palatable at this temperature. It is best to take red wine out of the appliance about 2 hours before drinking. Open the wine to allow it to breathe and to develop its aroma. After 2 hours, red wine will be at the correct temperature for drinking.

Storage temperatures above 72°F (22°C) will cause wines to mature too quickly. By contrast, wine should not be stored below 41°F (5°C), since it will not mature fully at this low temperature.

Fluctuations in temperature put wine under stress and interrupt the maturing process. Therefore, it is important to maintain a constant temperature.

Safety feature

A safety thermostat ensures that the temperature in the unit cannot drop too low. An interior heater keeps the temperature virtually constant.

Insulation panels for thermal separation

The unit has a fixed insulation panel that divides the interior into two sections. The temperature in the two sections can be set individually, so that different types of wines (red and white) can be stored.

Temperature unit (degrees Fahrenheit / degrees Celsius)

The temperature can be displayed in Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C).
