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).
