Merge

[edit]

I'm okay with Wine Cave being merged into Wine Cellar, as long as Wine Cellar remains the name of the article. It is by far the most popular use with a "Wave Cave", actually just being a type of Wine Cellar. Agne 11:56, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't merge

[edit]

"Wine cellar" is typically associated with residential wine storage and storage units, whereas "Wine Cave" is more appropriate for a high-volume storage areas (e.g., at wineries). Crammer101 11:13, 10 December 2006 (UTC)crammer101[reply]

"Wine Cellar" and "Wine Cave" are not the same and should not be merged together under one topic. The differences are too great to describe in this small section, but the storage of wine in a cave and a wine cellar and the construction and build-out of a wine cellar is completely different than the construction of a wine cave.

Attribution

[edit]

Some content in the Wine rack section are from the merged article Wine rack. AgneCheese/Wine 16:34, 16 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I found this page: http://www.winecellarinnovations.com/res_cus_prep_room.htm and felt that it was appropriate for the Wine Cellar page. It provides guidelines for proper wine cellar instruction. For users looking for information on wine cellars, this seems to be very useful information. I tried adding it but can't seem to figure out why it's not accepted. It's not promotional - only information on constructing a wine cellar, which is what the page is about. Please advise... thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Uprightcomm (talkcontribs) 14:42, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think that a better photo of a wine rack is needed. The article just got finished stating that a wine rack should store the bottles in such a position as to keep the corks in contact with the wine. In this photo, most of the wines are stored too close to upright for this to be true. JDHeinzmann (talk) 04:02, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting wording

[edit]

"all types of wine, including red, white, sparkling, and fortified, can spoil."

Before this moment, I was unaware that "all types of wine" included every type of wine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 711groove (talkcontribs) 19:49, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aging Temperature

[edit]

I'd like to suggest a source in response to the citation needed tag in the Conditions section. The text in need of citation is: "Note that wine generally matures differently and more slowly at a lower temperature than it does at a higher temperature." An appropriate source for this claim can be found at: http://www.vintagecellars.com/science-of-aging-wine.asp.

It states, "wines age best under cool conditions. An 18° increase from the 55° baseline doubles the rate of chemical reactions in wine. But if chemical reactions age the wine, why not increase the temperature and get a decade's worth of flavor complexity in a few years? Unfortunately, there are no such shortcuts. A temperature of 55° is the perfect environment for the chemical reactions that result in good wine. But it's too cold to allow other, undesirable reactions that can give a wine unwanted aromas. Even a short exposure to extreme temperatures can trigger unwanted reactions and ruin the wine. Wine ages best at a temperature that is both cool and constant."

The Vintage Cellars' Education Center is an informative and thorough resource on wine cellars, storage, and aging. The owners of the site have more than twenty years of expertise in wine cellar construction and are well-regarded in the wine cellar industry. I'd like disclose that Vintage Cellars is a client for the marketing agency I work for. Nevertheless, I wanted to offer the page as a verifiable and reputable source.

If no one objects, I can go ahead and make the change. Warrenh3 (talk) 23:49, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
