    Where does everyone store their wine? (Assuming it hangs around long enough to store!)

    My current only option is the garage but not ideal

    Wherever I can fit another bottle, frankly.
    I have spare rooms with bottles in. Under the stairs is crammed. On the landings of the stairs. In cupboards and in any nook and cranny. I really need to get rid of a load of it this Christmas. :)

    See Zigs, that's just not fair! What sort of racking do you use in there?

    No, laying down due to drinking too much.

      Garage is fine, that's where I keep mine for long term storage, somewhere where its cool and with little light (also like a shed) just be careful of red wine as the sun can bleach the colour...red wine is best stored in a brown Demijohn to stop the colour of the wine being bleached.

        I keep mine in a wine rack in the dining room or in the fridge so it's right ready to hand when I fancy a quick slurp! :heehee::ccheers:

          I keep mine behind my whisky which is behind the vodka which is behind the gin next to the massive bowl of dry roasted peanuts :help:
