Red wine is put in the refrigerator, can red wine be refrigerated

It is best not to keep red wine in the refrigerator. Many people think that red wine can be stored for a long time, and the refrigerator can keep it fresh, so it must last for a long time if you put the red wine in the refrigerator that has not been opened, which is wrong.

It is not suitable to put it in the refrigerator, and the temperature of the refrigerator is too low, the cork will dry out, and the air will enter the bottle and cause the wine to oxidize. The best time to store wine is between 11 and 15 °C. Bacteria above 20 are prone to chemical reactions, acetic acid bacteria and yeast are more active between 20-35, so wine needs to be stored at a constant temperature below 20, and the most ideal is 11-15.

For the sake of convenience, many friends generally use refrigerators to place red wine, in fact, can red wine be stored in ordinary refrigerators? Generally speaking, red wine should be placed in a special red wine storage cabinet, which is still different from the general refrigerated beverage cabinet.

1. Constant temperature.

The wine should be stored at a temperature of 5-20 degrees Celsius, and the optimal temperature is 10-12 degrees, but be careful not to have too large a temperature difference. There are professional precision compressors and temperature controllers in the wine storage cabinet, which are very accurate and stable for temperature control.

Although the temperature of the refrigerator can be set, there is still a certain gap between the actual temperature and the set temperature, and the temperature difference may be about 5 -6, so the temperature in the refrigerator is actually in a slightly unstable fluctuation state. This is obviously very detrimental to the preservation of wine.

2. Ventilation and humidity.

The humidity of the wine should be kept at about 60%-70%, otherwise it will affect the cork to crack or mildew.

Because the storage of red wine has strict requirements for ventilation and humidity, which is different from other refrigerators. The professional red wine storage cabinet has a complete ventilation system, which can keep the air fresh through the activated carbon plugs above and below the red wine storage cabinet, and can also appropriately increase the internal humidity through the difference between the temperature inside the red wine storage cabinet and the outdoor temperature. However, ordinary beverage refrigerators are obviously not so professional in ventilation and humidity regulation.

3. Pay attention to purchase.

Therefore, it is necessary to purchase a special wine storage cabinet for storing red wine, and it cannot be replaced by a common refrigerated cabinet. At the same time, because red wine has extremely high requirements for red wine storage cabinets, it is very necessary to choose a first-class brand wine cabinet, especially the quality and after-sales service should be good.

It is best not to store it in the refrigerator.

Many people think that red wine can be stored for a long time, and the refrigerator can keep it fresh, so the red wine that has not been opened in the refrigerator must be stored for a long time, but they don't know that this is a big misunderstanding.

The storage temperature of red wine should be about 12°, and the cold and hot changes should be avoided. The working principle of the refrigerator is intermittent, first refrigeration, refrigeration to a set temperature and then stop, and then continue to refrigerate when the temperature rises to a certain temperature.

Red wine can be refrigerated. But it is not recommended. It is not recommended to keep red wine fresh in the refrigerator.

If the temperature of the refrigerator is too low, the aroma and taste of the red wine will be locked and it will not be able to ripen, and the best storage temperature for wine is around 12 degrees Celsius. In addition, the humidity of the refrigerator is not enough to keep the cork moist, and the refrigerator refrigeration compressor vibrates with a large amplitude, which will accelerate the aging of the wine.

Introduction

The "mission" of the refrigerator is to store all kinds of perishable food and beverages in a cold and dry environment, with an average temperature of about 4-5 degrees Celsius, where salads, breads, smoked sausages and beer can coexist in harmony.

However, such temperatures are too cold for wine, and the optimal storage temperature for wine is around 12 degrees Celsius. At the right temperature, the wine can slowly develop and mature, gaining more aromas and complexity; If the temperature is too low, the wine will go into a dormant state, which is not a good thing.

Red wine can be stored in the refrigerator on the day of opening or after opening, and is not suitable for long-term storage in the refrigeratorBecause the low humidity and temperature fluctuations of the refrigerator are not suitable for the preservation of red wine, red wine can be stored flat at room temperature in a dark, cool, shockproof place.

Low temperature can slow down the oxidation of red wine and ensure the mellow taste of red wine to the greatest extent, but unopened red wine is recommended to be stored in a cool, ventilated and dry place at room temperature, and sealed red wine is more conducive to its fermentation at room temperature. Refrigerated wine that has been opened at a low temperature is equivalent to leaving it dormant and can be stored for a longer time.

Storing Knowledge:

Red wine is not always better the older it is. The vintage on the wine refers to the grapes of the year. The majority (99%) of wines are not ageable and the best drinking period varies depending on the wine, but is generally between 2 and 10 years.

Only a small number of particularly good wines have the ability to age.

Some of the top French and Italian wines have been aged for decades or even centuries. Many of the wines from Bordeaux's top châteaux are still drinkable even if they have been preserved for more than one century. Wines require tannins (i.e. tannic acids) for ageing, and Cabernet Sauvignon (grape variety) is the most suitable for ageing due to its geography and characteristics.

Yes, red wine can be kept in the refrigerator, but there are a few things to keep in mind:1Temperature:

The best temperature for red wine is usually between 15 and 18, so keep it in the optimal temperature zone of the refrigerator. However, the temperature in the refrigerator is usually lower than this temperature range, so the bottle should be warmed up properly to the optimal serving temperature before taking out the red wine and drinking it. 2.

Storage time: Generally speaking, it is said that the red wine should be placed in the refrigerator for too long, and the maximum time should not exceed 1 month. Storing the wine for too long may degrade the quality and taste of the sake.

3.Containers: Wine bottles and containers need to be kept clean to help prevent possible bacterial contamination.

At the same time, try to ensure that the bottle is in a horizontal state to maintain the quality of the wine.

For a short time, you can.

Red wine is not suitable for long-term storage in the refrigerator, because the low humidity and temperature fluctuations of the refrigerator are not suitable for red wine preservation.

There are also many small props on the market that block wine and air, such as vacuum bottle caps, wine reticers, and inert gas filling. Another trick is to divide the wine into small bottles at the top of the bottle, which also reduces the area of air contact.

The ideal storage temperature for red wine is about 11, but the most important thing is that the temperature must be constant and stable, because the thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes is the most likely to allow the wine to seep out of the cork and accelerate the oxidation of the wine. Therefore, as long as it can be kept at a constant temperature of 5 to 20, it is acceptable, but too cold will slow the growth of the wine and you will have to wait longer, and too hot it will mature too quickly and will not be rich and delicate.

How to store red wine and how to store it:

Long-term residual temperature storage, that is, in, will accelerate the deterioration of the wine, which will also lead to the reduction of the original complexity of the stored wine, regardless of the cellar location, constant temperature has an important role in the storage of wine, and frequent temperature fluctuations will lead to uneven storage and reduce the complexity of wine aromas.

Therefore, for better storage, constant temperature is key. A relative humidity of around 75% keeps the cork sufficiently moist to reduce the transition to equilibrium oxygen. When we store wine, we do not place it lying flat, but at an angle, so that the air gap (the air gap in the cork and in the liquid) is in perfect contact with the cork.
