The cellar is a place that may hold secrets, or treasures. It gives an added dimension to a house or flat. It should look after its guest, so be dark, cool, vibration-free and well ventilated. Wine is a living substance, so it reacts to certain stimulations, such as movements, light, heat or cold.
Temperature should be fairly constant: between 9°C and 12°C in winter, and not over 15°C in the summer. Rapid changes in temperature can make your wines age faster and less harmoniously. Stored between 10°C and 12°C, white wines are at ideal temperature for both aging and serving, while red wines age slowly and well. They will just need to be brought up from the cellar an hour before serving.
Hydrometer (the amount of moisture in the sir) should be at around 70%. This will help keep corks supple and the air out of the wine inside.

Since 1926, L'Atelier du Vin has specialised in supplies and equipment for wine-making, bottling and serving. Today, L'Atelier du Vin, thanks to its research, its wine tools and its wine education tools, is the sole specialist able to cover every step in the life of a wine from the cellar to the glass.
