WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN BUYING A WINE COOLER?

A good wine cooler allows you to store wines and always be ready to serve them at the right temperature for the best tasting experience. When storing wine, there are several things to consider. Wine should not be exposed to bright light as this speeds up the maturation process. A wine cooler should therefore be equipped with a covering door or a UV-protected glass door. The wine should also not be exposed to movement as vibration is harmful to the wine. Air and smell also play a role. A good wine fridge should therefore have a carbon filter to prevent odours or efficient air circulation. Humidity is important because the cork must not dry out and let air in as this affects the wine.

WHAT TEMPERATURE SHOULD A WINE COOLER BE?

Temperature is important when it comes to wine. A wine should be stored at a certain temperature, around 12 degrees for all wines, and served at a different temperature. Most white wines, sparkling wines and dessert wines do best at a temperature of 8-10 degrees. Red wines are preferred by many to be drunk at 16-18 degrees. If you want to chill both red and white wine in the same wine cooler, you need a wine cooler with at least two temperature zones. If you want to store your wine in the same wine cooler, you need a wine cooler with at least three temperature zones.

STAND-ALONE OR INTEGRATED WINE COOLER?

You can choose between a free-standing and a built-in, or integrated, wine cooler. If you buy a free-standing wine cooler, it is important to remember that it must have a few centimetres of air space around it so that the hot air from the fridge can circulate. If you want a built-in wine cooler, there are wine coolers with other types of air vents. There are large and small wine coolers. A small wine cooler is stylish and practical if you don't have a lot of space. A larger wine cooler may be suitable for the home of the wine enthusiast who likes to store many wines.
