The role of temperature in wine investment

Wine isn’t just a beverage, it’s a living asset. If bottles are stored at the wrong temperature, their taste, aroma, and investment value can deteriorate rapidly. Research shows that temperatures above 15°C (59°F) can cause wine to age unpredictably, develop faults, or lose their collectible appeal. Without precise climate control, even the best vintages risk spoilage or oxidation.

Don’t Risk DIY Storage

Most homes, kitchens, and personal cellars simply cannot provide the stable, cool, and humid environment required for fine wine over months or years. Even brief exposure to warmth, vibration, or dry air can irreversibly damage the wine’s profile and destroy resale value, all before you even notice. The result: wasted potential and lost investment.

Do different regions or ages of wine need different storage?
