Wine Storage Hong Kong

Like stocks and shares wine storage has become a good mode of investment in todays world. Earlier, only rich could afford a cellar and that was their possession of pride. They liked to display it to their guest and most of the time they did not lose the chance of boasting of having a cellar. Generally the cellar used to be situated underground. But at the present scenario the wine business is a good source of earning money. People have come to know that a proper wine storage yields a good amount of money.

Wine business is a very profitable business and it has a huge return if you do the wine storage properly. So the first thing what you have to do is gathering knowledge on wine storing. If you do not have good knowledge on wine, making your wine will turn acid and no one will buy your acid. Your profit will be a big zero. Its not that you will only lose the profit you will lose your investment too because a big amount of money is needed initially to start the wine business. The price of wine mainly depends on the type of the grapes and the region where it has been grown. Another deciding factor of the price of the wine is age. The more old, the more precious it is. That is why when a wreck of a ship is discovered under the sea the first things that are searched are wine bottles. Under the water at the sea bottom wine gets the most appropriate atmosphere to be preserved. For this reason when wine is discovered from the sea bottom they are sent to the auction and are sold in a good price.

To make a good wine the appropriate temperature that one needs is 56- 58 degrees Fahrenheit along with 70 percent humidity. Humidity plays an important role because in dry weather cork shrinks. If the cork shrinks air leaks into the bottle and oxidation occurs and the result is bitterness of wine. Due to oxidation the wine turns to acid. While packing the wine in the bottle one should maintain the ullage. The Ullage is a technical term which means the gap between the cork and the wine. There is a certain measure. That should be maintained to avoid oxidation. Before, the quality of the cork was not up to the mark. For this reason re-corking was an indispensable step because after certain time the cork would become brittle. But after the invention of new good quality long-lasting cork, re-corking is no more needed and it saves money. Ultimately the cost of wine storage decreases though slightly.

Another important thing of wine storage is label. On the label the name of the brand, the manufacturing date, its origin should be printed because they are important for the valuation of the wine. Unlike other things the value of wine increases with the increase in age. The label damages with the time because wines are kept in humid weather. For the protection of the label the wine companies are using plastic protectors to protect the wine. Other factors that are really harmful in the making of wine are vibration and light. Heat and light leakage inside the bottle become the cause of the unacceptable aroma of the wine. Nowadays companies are using bottles with UV filters though they can not be hundred percent light-proofs. To avoid being light struck, preserve it in dark and in basement. Also avoid vibration before serving it in a glass.
