Wines evolve in the bottle and proper wine aging is important.. As a result, they mature to their peaks best under controlled conditions. While some white wines can be refrigerated in a normal unit, it is best for red wine storage to occur in a cellar, away from natural light and at a well-regulated temperature. Strongbox in Chicago offers a unique wine storage and retrieval system, with a self-storage facility as well as a cellar. Our two wine bottle storage locations maintain proper temperature conditions as well as humidity, to ensure that wines are aged and matured properly and corks do not dry out.
Our locations maintain a constant temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit year round, so that wines are kept in a consistent environment that is the optimum for maturation. Some discount wine storage facilities will not have a climate control system that is separate for the wines, but we do, ensuring that no matter the temperature outside, your vintages will be safe. Our wine storage and retrieval system is protected by security, yet conveniently accessible during all normal business hours. We also maintain a relative humidity between sixty and seventy percent, preventing mold from developing or corks from drying out. We also protect against vibration (which can upset the equilibrium of wine and shake off sediments too soon) and ultraviolet light.
We not only offer cellars at competitive prices, but tasting rooms and waiting areas with the latest industry periodicals as well. Unlike your typical discount wine storage facility, ours are elegantly decorated, reminscent of Italian wine-growing country. For red wine storage, contact us today.
