Temperature of room where wine is stored: Wine usually tastes best when kept at room temperature, or 55 degrees. Here’s where it gets difficult — sparkling wine should be kept in a wine refrigerator, while white wines are best kept in temperatures of 45 degrees. Temperature controlled wine refrigerators allow you to set the temperature based on the wines you most frequently store, but wine racks placed in a cooler spot of your home will do just as good. Just make sure that the spot you decide to store your wine isn’t next to a heater or vent, as any fluctuations in temperature can impact the taste of the wines, as well the quality.
