Wine 101: In-Home Wine Cellars & Storage
Monday, September 13, 2010 at 9:58AM | Leah Greenstein 
Last week I ran through the ABCs of wine storage. Today, I'm going to jump ahead and assume that you've moved your wine out of the hall closet and into something a little cooler that, in all likelihood some 30-bottle wine fridge from Home Depot or Target that rattles and hums nearly as much as U2. Wine refrigerators certainly keep wines cold, but tend to have temperature swings as much as 15 degrees as the cooling system kicks on and off. Since proper cellaring requires steady temps, this doesn’t work for long-term aging.
