9If you are lucky enough to have a cellar at home, make sure you have a list of what is stored and where in the cellar. It’s not so fun cellaring wine if you can never find what you’re looking for!

10Lastly, if you don’t have the correct storage, we advise to just enjoy the wine here and now. There’s nothing worse than putting an expensive bottle away only to find it has spoiled in years to come.

WINE STORAGE SOLUTION

Surprisingly, wine storage doesn’t actually cost that much – for the same price as a cup of coffee a month, you can store 12 bottles of wine at Wine Ark, Australia’s largest climate controlled wine storage provider. That includes security, online inventory and full replacement insurance. You can deliver your wine directly to Wine Ark or have them collect your wine from your favourite wineries and retailers. You can also manage your cellar from your computer or phone; their specialist team will do the rest. When you want the wine out, all you have to do is log online and select the wines. Wine Ark then dispatches them out to you, how easy is that? There are regular meet-ups and tastings held at Wine Ark in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne and over 16 locations to choose from in total. Visit wine-ark.com.au to find the nearest one to you.
