What is ideal wine storage? ...It is:

Correct Temperature for storing wine is between 56 to 58 degrees F. At this temperature there are a minimum number of adverse organic reactions to ruin your wine, while there are the maximum number of complex organic ester reactions to give your wine character. (check for the temperture to serve your wine)...The Cave has a "natural" radiant heating and cooling system, and it's in this temperature range!
Proper Humidity...means proper ullage ...(the size of the gap between the cork and wine)...and We take added means to protect your labels on your bottles.

In the Wine Spectator of July 31, 1997 in an article "The Five Truths about Wine" it is said for Truth No.3:

"Your wine storage is never perfect enough. This niggles at nearly everyone even, I suspect, deep pocket sorts who have installed temperature control equipment. Once you find yourself with more wine that you can drink in a week, you begin to fret about storage."
"Even if you've built an intensive wine facility--with digital temperature readouts with probes inserted into filled bottles, alarms that signal faulty control equipment and heavens know what else--your still insure. Maybe its not humid enough? Some say a cellar should be more humid than a fish tank."
"The source of this insecurity is this: What we really want is something we saw in a magazine or on a trip to Europe, namely, one of those old stone cellars that are so cold your breath condenses, and so humid that the walls glisten. Every wine from such a cellar tastes as fresh as spring water. Everything else is just a prayer."
The taste of wine is what it's all about and Dr. Ann Noble (beautiful Dr. Ann at UC davis) developed the the tasting wheel. Plastic copies can be obtained directly from Dr. Noble..the cost is reasonable and for a good cause.
