The ideal temperature for storing wine in a wine rack is around 55°F (13°C). This range maintains wine quality by slowing the aging process and preventing spoilage. If you can’t maintain this exact temperature, aim for a stable environment between 45°F (7°C) and 65°F (18°C) with minimal fluctuation. Avoid placing wine racks near heat sources or in direct sunlight. If you’re a serious collector, consider placing your rack in a cellar or a room with temperature control to preserve your wines’ flavors and aromas. Consistent temperature is key to ensuring wine longevity.
