One of the great joys of wine is being able to select a bottle from your own cellar perhaps one that you've been storing for some years draw the cork and enjoy it with friends. You can marvel at the changes brought on by maturity and as a bonus you can brag about the price you paid and congratulate yourself on picking up such a bargain!
The ideal temperature to store wines is between 55F and 58F (13C15C). However any temperature between 4065F (518C) will suffice as long as it remains constant. It is the degree and speed of the temperature change are critical.
