Wine Storage Solutions in Thailand: A Simple Guide

For those who appreciate a flavorful glass of wine, it’s essential to ensure that the quality is maintained and it continues to taste great. Wine can develop a depth of flavor when stored properly. But our hot and humid weather in Thailand can make finding wine storage solutions challenging. So, how can you ensure your wine maintains its flavor, even in the Thai heat? 
First, let's talk about what makes a quality wine taste as good as it does. Besides the type of grapes used, the soil and weather conditions at the vineyard, and the methods used to produce the wine, the temperatures and conditions you store your wine bottles in also make a big difference to the quality and taste. Red wines are best when served slightly cooler than room temperature, while whites and rosés taste best when they're nicely chilled but not too icy. But even the perfect serving temperatures can’t save a bottle that has spoiled because of poor storage.

Some Simple Tips for Storing Your Wine Correctly:

1. Keep it lying down:

Long-term wine storage that stores the bottles horizontally helps prevent the corks from drying out and keeps the humidity level just right. Dried-out corks can shrink and allow air to enter the wine bottle. This causes oxidation, resulting in a musty ‘off’ taste to your wine. 

2. Choose a dark, cool spot:

Find a dark and cool place away from direct sunlight to store your wine, as UV rays can destroy a wine’s flavor. The cool temperature also helps maintain the wine’s flavor and quality.

3. Maintain the right temperature:

For long-term wine storage, aim for a temperature between 55°F (13°C) and 65°F (18°C). This range helps wine age gracefully and preserves its flavors.

4. Avoid temperature changes:

Sudden fluctuations in temperature can adversely affect your wine's flavor. Keep it steady to keep it tasty.

5. Avoid Unnecessary Movement:

Try not to move or handle your wine more than necessary. Having the sediments in wine continually stirred up may affect the aging process and can mute the flavors of your wine. 

Finding a wine storage solution that provides all these ideal conditions in Thailand's tropical climate used to be tough, if not impossible. However, now there’s Mespace.
