Wines stored with the utmost care

Italian wineries

Italy is the country with the largest and most diversified wine production in the world.
Its climate, the varieties of grape, its geological characteristics and the lay of the land make the “Bel Paese” - which the Ancient Greeks called Enotria, “land of wine” - the ideal place to produce excellent wines.

Wine and food culture reflect Italy’s soul, through different landscapes, customs, traditions and know-how. The numerous labels and their different organoleptic qualities require optimal preservation, in order to maintain their characteristics and ensure that taste is unchanged over time.

A celebration of wine culture

The charm of the wine world and the importance of its preservation have inspired Smeg to develop a new range of wine coolers, technological design masterpieces.

Preservation

The Smeg wine cellars use the latest technology to correctly store and age wine.
Wine tasting is a sensory analysis. Whether it’s white, red, rosé, still or sparkling, wine always requires several ideal conditions to preserve its characteristics. The taste of a wine and its quality can be measured according to several chemical parameters and other purely personal ones. In order to better preserve these characteristics, there are some essential conditions. Smeg has accurately developed a solution for each one of them.

Temperature
The ideal range to correctly preserve and age different wines is generally between 8°C and 16°C.

Humidity
This important variable must be between 60% and 80% to prevent wine oxidation.

Light
Light and UV rays can alter a wines organoleptic structure, thus it should be stored in a protected environment.

Protection against vibrations
Even the smallest vibrations can have a negative impact on wine, thus it is essential that bottles are stored steady.
