Arranging your wine
In order to maintain good air circulation in your cooler, do not let the bottles
touch the back of your cooler.
Different temperature zones are generated within your cooler because of air
circulation. The upper area’s temperature is the highest while the lower area is the
lowest.
For best performance, store different types of wine within your cooler, in the
following sequence, from top to bottom:
• Strong red wine
• Pink and mild red wine
• White wine
• Champagne and spritzer
Serving and storage tips
We suggest that you pour wine at a temperature below the ideal serving
temperature, because the wine warms up quickly after it’s been poured into a
glass.
• Do not store bottled wine by the box or case in your cooler.
• The cork of an opened bottle should always be moistened when returning it
to the bottle.
• Red wine should be allowed to breathe (oxygenate) before drinking. We
suggest that you put pink/rose type wines onto the table two to five hours
before drinking and red wine four to five hours before drinking. That also
allows them to reach the suitable serving temperature. White wine, on the
other hand, can be served right away.
• Champagne should always be stored in your cooler and taken out
immediately before drinking.
