Our priority is helping you to find the best solutions for your wine storage needs…To do so, EuroCave Professional has
drawn on its considerable expertise to combine the 6 essential criteria for serving wine:
Temperature
The two enemies of wine are extreme temperatures and sudden fluctuations in temperature. A constant temperature
allows wine to reach its full potential.
Humidity
It is an important factor, allowing the corks to retain their sealing qualities. The level of humidity must be above 50%
(ideally between 60 and 75%).
Protection from light
Light, particularly its ultraviolet component, causes wine to deteriorate very quickly by irreversible oxidation of tannins.
It is therefore strongly recommended that you store your wine in a place protected from U.V. light.
Lack of vibration
Vibration disturbs wine’s long development process and is often fatal for your finest wines. The “Main Du Sommelier”
supports adapt to the shape of the bottle and protect it from vibration (anti-vibration technology).
Circulation of air
A constant supply of fresh air prevents mould from developing in your cabinet. EuroCave Professional cabinets benefit
from a ventilation system by breather effect, which makes it very similar to the ventilation system found in a natural cellar.
Storage
Moving bottles around too often is harmful to your wine. Having suitable shelving which limits handling is essential.
Thank you for placing your trust in EuroCave Professional.
