Buying the wine of the year, drinking the wine of the previous year, tasting the aged wine, and collecting the old wine are the portrayals of many collectors.
However, hot weather, high temperature or light will destroy the molecules of the wine, which will cause it to run away and volatilize, affecting the taste, and at worst, it will deteriorate and lose its value. How to preserve Moutai at home in order to best preserve its value?
>> From a professional point of view, Moutai is extremely picky about the storage environment.
First of all, the temperature needs to be maintained between 15-25°C to avoid extreme temperature differences. Secondly, the humidity should be controlled at 60-75% to prevent the cap from getting wet or the bottle from drying. In addition, avoid direct sunlight and strong lights, as ultraviolet rays can accelerate the chemical reactions in the wine and affect the quality.
Moutai should be placed horizontally or slightly at an angle, so that the liquor can come into contact with the cap and maintain a tight seal. Remember not to leave the bottle upside down or upright for too long, as the stopper will dry out and the seal will not be tight.
>> Do the following points, you can preserve Moutai well
1. Keep away from "danger zones"
Keep away from kitchens, bathrooms and other places that are susceptible to oil smoke and moisture. Keep away from high-temperature appliances such as refrigerators, heaters, etc., as temperature fluctuations can destabilize the wine.
Whether it is a loose bottle or a whole box, pay attention to sun protection and moisture protection. Avoid accelerated fading of bottles and boxes. If moisture-proof is needed in the southern region, it is recommended to lay moisture-proof mats and do not put dehumidification pills with smell.
2. Keep away from odor sources
Wine tends to absorb ambient odors during storage, so stay away from items with strong odors, such as perfumes, paints, and chemicals.
Mothballs, dehumidification pills and other things with special flavors are easy to cross flavors with the fragrance of Moutai, which seriously affects the aroma of the esterification reaction of Moutai itself, and greatly reduces the value of the collection.
3. Not all Moutai is suitable for long-term storage
Although there is a saying that "the older you get, the more fragrant it is", not all Moutai is suitable for long-term storage. Generally speaking, 53% Feitian Moutai is suitable for long-term storage, while low-alcohol Moutai should be consumed within 5 years.
4. Pay attention to sealing
If you buy Moutai for self-drinking, you should drink it as soon as possible after opening the bottle. The cap of the bottle must be tightened for short-term storage, and then the mouth of the bottle is sealed with raw material tape/plastic wrap, which can prevent the wine from running to a large extent.
Remember not to plasticize, wax seal, and do not wrap the whole bottle with plastic wrap.
Do not seal the box, if there is water vapor trapped, it will make the box damp and moldy.
5. Take care of your Moutai regularly
Every once in a while, check the storage status of Moutai. Observe whether the cap is well sealed and whether there are cracks or leaks in the bottle body. If problems are found, deal with them in time to avoid losses.
