Protecting Your Wine With A Weald Wine Cooler

Weald Refrigeration the premier wine cooler manufacturer in the UK advise that all wine should be protected from its greatest enemy which as  many of you will know is the oxygen in the air. If the cork dries out and shrinks then it no longer acts as an airtight seal and will allow oxygen in and the wine will spoil.

This is the reason why wine bottles have traditionally been stored on their sides so that the wine helps keeps the cork damp and swollen and filling the bottleneck.

It has been suggest that it is far better for wine to store bottles at an angle which ensures that both wine and the air bubble are in contact with the cork.

Here at Weald Refrigeration you are able to store your wine in both ways due to the combination of chrome top and tailed wine shelves and chrome angled display shelves all can be tailored to suit your needs on its PR range of wine coolers/chillers.

With this wine shelving systems it ensures that corks will remain damp but allow any expansion and contraction that may happen due to temperature variation to result in air, and not wine, passing through the cork

Temperature fluctuation is also serious hazard for wine storage, although the cooler wine is kept, the slower it will develop. The warmer it is stored, the faster it will mature.

All of the Prestige Range of wine coolers come with microprocessor control that allows you to set the temperatures between +4°C and +24°C and be confident that all of the bottles in the fridge will be within one degree of the set point.

Weald Refrigeration’s flagship models, the Prestige Range of wine coolers, have been designed specifically to display and store your wines in the best way possible, keeping it at the perfect temperature at all times
