What you should consider when delivering wine
-
Consider storage location
The plan is for you to receive your bottle of wine - Château Ducru-Beaucaillou 1956 - in person. This ensures that the red wine is not unnecessarily exposed to the weather. If you have wine delivered to a parcel station, pay attention to cold or hot day and night temperatures. This is because a parcel station is usually not air-conditioned. Spending too long in such a parcel compartment can affect the wine bottle. If the wine delivery was left on your doorstep, a longer stay in hot, cold or wet conditions can also disadvantage the wine bottle.
-
Avoid condensation
Especially in the winter months (below 10° Celsius), your wine delivery is exposed to cold temperatures during transport. We therefore recommend that you place your package with 1956 Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou unopened in a room with a room temperature of approximately 15 - 18° Celsius for approximately 24 hours after delivery. This allows the wine bottle to acclimatize gently. If you were to place the cold wine bottle in a warm room, condensation would form on the glass body. This happens because the warm, humid room temperature hits the cold surface of your new bottle red wine . The result would be water droplets and moisture affecting the wine label. A wavy, partially slightly detached label could occur.
