In light of recent events on the continent, I'd say candles in the wine rack makes you practical.SuzeQStan said:horsewithnoname said: I do. Where else would you store them?Screwtop and T-corks should be stored upright in a cool dark location. In the wine cellar next to the vintage stuff is fine.But if we are talking about the cheap £5 bottles of plonk from Aldi, just bung them in the fridge.Her courage will change the world.
Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.3 -

If it dries out, it could shrink and allow air to enter the bottle and spoil the contents.With screwtops, the contents could leak out over time if stored on their sides - I've had this happen with a couple of bottles of spirits. The screwtops are also more prone to corrosion (wines are slightly acidic), so another reason for storing the bottles upright.Her courage will change the world.

If the screw tops corroded they are made from the wrong material.FreeBear said:horsewithnoname said:

How is it acceptable to use something that could taint or even render the contents poisonous ?1 -

The screw tops are unlikely to get long enough to corrode 🤣FreeBear said:horsewithnoname said:

but of course, keeping them on their side is to stop the cork drying- never really considered the fact that screw tops don’t dry out 😊2
