To maintain quality, store wine in a cool, dark place with a consistent temperature (ideally 12-18°C or 55-65°F). Keep bottles lying on their side to keep the cork moist and prevent oxidation.

No, not all wines are meant for aging. Most wines are best enjoyed within a few years of production. Only certain high-quality red wines, fortified wines, and select whites (like some Chardonnays) improve with age due to their structure and tannin content.

Wine labels provide important information about the wine, such as the grape variety, vintage (year of harvest), region (where the wine is produced), and the winery. Some labels may also include details about the wine's style (e.g., dry, sweet, full-bodied) and alcohol content. Understanding these key details can help you choose a wine that matches your preferences and needs.
