IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
TEMPERATURE
Your unit has been designed to guarantee optimum
conditions for storing and/or serving your wines.
Fine wines require long and gentle developments
and need specific conditions in which to reach their
full potential.
All wines mature at the same temperature, which is
a constant temperature set between 11ºC to 14ºC.
Only the tempe
rature of “dégustation” (wine
appreciation) varies according to the type of wines
(see “Wine Serving Temperature Chart” above).
This being said and as it is for natural cellars used
by wine producers for long period of storage, it is not
the exact temperature that is important, but its
consistency. In other words, as long as the
temperature of your wine cellar is constant (between
11ºC to 14ºC) your wines will be stored in perfect
conditions.
Not all wines will improve over the years. Some
should be consumed at an early stage (2 to 3 years)
while others have tremendous ageing capability (50
and over). All wines have a peak in maturity. Do
check with your wine merchant to get the relevant
information.
