During the storage of Mulberry Wine, a series of conditions need to be met to ensure that the quality of the wine remains unchanged.
First of all, temperature is one of the key factors. Mulberry Wine should be stored in a relatively stable and low temperature environment, generally between 10℃ and 15℃. Higher temperatures will accelerate the chemical reactions of the wine, resulting in a decline in the quality of the wine. For example, too high a temperature may cause the aroma components in the wine to evaporate too quickly, affecting the flavor of the wine; at the same time, it may also promote the growth of microorganisms in the wine and cause deterioration. Lower temperatures can slow down the speed of these reactions and maintain the stability of the wine.
Secondly, humidity also needs to be controlled within a suitable range. Generally, the relative humidity should be maintained at around 60% to 70%. Too high humidity may cause the wine label and bottle cap to mold, affecting the appearance of the wine; too low humidity may cause the cork to dry and shrink, causing air to enter the bottle, causing the wine to oxidize and deteriorate.
Light is also an important factor affecting the quality of Mulberry Wine. The wine should be stored in a dark place and avoid direct sunlight. Ultraviolet rays can destroy the organic molecules in the wine, making the wine lighter in color and worse in flavor. Therefore, it is best to store the wine in a basement, wine cellar or special wine cabinet.
Ventilation of the storage environment is also important. Good ventilation can prevent the accumulation of odors, but avoid strong winds blowing directly on the wine. Odors may be absorbed by the wine and affect the flavor of the wine. At the same time, ventilation can also keep the air fresh and reduce the growth of mold and bacteria.
Mulberry Wine should be kept horizontal when stored, especially wine sealed with corks. This keeps the cork moist and prevents air from entering the bottle. If placed upright for a long time, the cork may dry and shrink, causing air to enter the bottle and oxidize the wine.
In addition, avoid moving and shaking the Mulberry Wine frequently. Vibration may suspend the sediment in the wine and affect the taste of the wine; at the same time, it may also damage the structure of the wine.
In short, during the storage of Mulberry Wine, the temperature, humidity, light, ventilation and other conditions must be strictly controlled, and the wine must be kept stable to avoid frequent movement and vibration. Only in this way can the quality of Mulberry Wine be ensured to remain unchanged for a long time, so that people can taste the delicious Mulberry Wine.
