The responsibility for the quality of the wine

does not stop with the wine storage. As a wine 

consumer you too will want to handle your

wine carefully; especially if you want to provide

the full benefit to both yourself and your

guests. You need to know how to properly

store your wine and how it is to be correctly

served. For example, it is worthwhile, to decant

strong red wines into a carafe before serving;

particularly if they are to be enjoyed while they

are young. The contact area of the wine with

air is greater in the carafe than in the bottle.

This means, the wine ‘‘saturates’’ with oxygen so

that it is positively changed and any possible

sullying of the aroma rapidly disappears. Older

red wines are decanted in order to separate

the sediment that has settled at the bottom of

the bottle from the rest of the wine. A lighted

candle placed under the bottle neck helps

reveal this sediment. Most important, however,

is to ensure that your wine is at the right 

serving temperature. White wines are best

enjoyed when they are cold. And room 

temperature as a measure for a red wine is

long since passé. Even heavy wines should not

be served at temperatures of more than

+20 °C; a temperature of +18 °C is even better.

Only then will the flavour and refinement show

to their very best.

Depending on model size, the technically advanced 
appliances in the Vinidor range have two or three wine
compartments allowing independent temperature settings.
The appliances can be set in the temperature range of 
+5 °C and +20 °C to exactly the degree required in each
of the compartments.

All the Vinidor appliances feature an innovative LED lighting concept. There

is LED lighting in each temperature zone, integrated in the ceiling and in

the insulation plates. This advanced technology ensures uniform illumination

of the complete interior. Since any heat generated by the LEDs is minimal,

wines can be presented, bathed in light, for a longer time period.

The WTes 1753 and WTUes 1653 represent an innovative solution for your

storage requirements. For example, the control unit is incorporated into 

the insulation plate. The zones above and beneath this plate can be set 

independently of each other to two different temperatures ranging from

+5 ºC to +20 ºC. Red or white wine, can be stored together or separately,

as you choose, at ideal drinking temperatures in this appliance.
