Your wine is a treasured asset

Suitable Humidity

If wine is stored in conditions that are too dry, the cork will shrink and cause leakage. Too moist, then mould and contamination may occur.

In addition, any spaces in the corks will allow air to enter and oxidise the wine which also leads to spoilage.

Kennards Wine Storage maintains moderate humidity levels (55%-75%) to avoid these problems and assist in the optimum wine development conditions.

Movement & Handling

Wine is a sensitive and fragile product. Frequent jolts or vibrations during its development can be detrimental. Storing wine next to the fridge or in the laundry exposes it to constant vibration and should be avoided. 

With your own personal cellar you control every movement or handling of your wine. You don’t have to worry about storemen or forklifts moving it, like in a managed warehouse operation. No one else has access to your wine, so all movement and handling is performed by you.

Light & Storage

Frequent exposure to light is detrimental for a wines development. The Kennards Wine Storage Cellars are enclosed and the wine will only see the light when you visit. 

Again, when your wine is not under your control, who knows what light exposure it is getting?
