Fortified Wine Storage: Preserve Perfection. Securely Stored.
Fortified wines, renowned for their rich complexity and aging potential, benefit significantly from secure and stable warehouse storage. A dedicated warehouse space provides an ideal environment to preserve the delicate characteristics developed during maturation. Choosing a warehouse with robust structural integrity – specifically, reinforced concrete construction – is crucial to minimize vibration and movement, key factors impacting wine aging. The warehouse should offer dark, quiet conditions to protect the wine from extraneous light, a known catalyst for unwanted oxidation. Furthermore, the space should be meticulously cleaned and maintained to prevent contamination from dust, mold, or other foreign particles. Proper shelving systems, designed for wine bottle support and efficient space utilization, are essential. A warehouse’s inherent stability and protection from external elements – including fluctuating light levels and potential disturbances – contribute to the wine’s continued development. Selecting a warehouse with experienced staff knowledgeable in handling delicate goods ensures consistent practices, safeguarding the quality and value of your fortified wine inventory. Ultimately, a well-managed warehouse provides a secure and stable foundation for long-term storage and optimal aging.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 sq ft storage area, ideally 15ft x 13ft, with a height clearance of at least 10 feet. Consider a larger area (300 sq ft) for anticipated growth.
Storage Conditions: The storage area must be dry and well-ventilated. Avoid direct sunlight exposure. The floor should be level and constructed of a durable, easy-to-clean material like concrete or epoxy. Dust and debris accumulation should be minimized.
Special Handling: Fortified wines are considered fragile. Each bottle should be individually padded with protective material, such as bubble wrap or foam inserts, during storage and handling. Palletized goods should have adequate bracing to prevent shifting.
Stacking/Shelving: Utilize pallet racking for efficient storage, allowing for stacking up to 4-5 pallets high. Shelving units with adjustable shelves are also suitable, with a maximum shelf height of 5 feet. Ensure shelving is strong enough to support the weight of stacked cases.
Access Requirements: A loading dock with a minimum width of 12 feet and a door opening of at least 10 feet is required for truck access. A clear aisle space of 8 feet is needed between storage racks for forklift maneuvering. A minimum door clearance of 9 feet is necessary for safe passage.
