Should you keep red wine in wine fridge?
Store Wine in a Wine Fridge, Not a Regular Fridge. Unlike a standard refrigerator, which keeps your food very cold and dry, a wine fridge keeps wine between 50-60u02daF (10-15u02daC) and at the proper humidity. (A good fridge will also have a cooler setting for champagne.)
What is the best way to store red wine?
The key takeaway should be to store your wine in a dark and dry place to preserve its great taste. If you can’t keep a bottle entirely out of light, keep it inside of a box or wrapped lightly in cloth. If you opt for a cabinet to age your wine, be sure to select one with solid or UV-resistant doors.
How long can you keep red wine in a wine fridge?
Your wine should last from 2-5 days, depending on the variety, so be sure to enjoy it before then. Leaving wine in your refrigerator for too long can result in dull flavors, brownish coloring or vinegary tastes and scents.
What kind of wine do you put in a wine fridge?
Lighter, fruitier, and drier white wines such as Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc are ideal at colder temperatures, usually between 45-50 degrees. Bubbly bottles such as Champagne, Prosecco, sparkling brut, and sparkling ross should always be chilled to 40-50 degrees.
