When storing wine, one of the most important factors is temperature. Temperature can be vital to maintaining a fine wine through storage right into your wine glass. Store at a temperature too high and you risk your wine aging prematurely. This will cause it to lose flavor and become imbalanced. Store your wine at too low of a temperature and you risk your wine also losing flavor as well as its vital aromas.

The ideal storing temperature for most red wines is at roughly 50-65 degrees Fahrenheit. Likewise, for whites it is good to go a little cooler, say around 45 degrees Fahrenheit. These are not exact temperatures for all red and white wines obviously but the majority will fall into these two recommended temperature zones.

Maintaining a proper environment is important to having great tasting wine because too much fluctuation in temperature/humidity can cause both flavor and cork damage. If the cork becomes cracked, small amounts of unwanted air will creep into the bottle and ruin the wine altogether.
