For long term storage you want:
- a place that is somewhat cool and preferably a constant temperature usually in the upper 50′s You can get more specific here is a chart: http://www.bettertastingwine.com/temperature.html
- a place away from direct light.
- a place free of vibration.
- Racks to allow the wine to be stored on it’s side so that the cork or other closure remains moist so it does not dry out and allow air to get in and out of the bottle.

The main issue when it comes to storing wine is that it needs to be maintained at a cool temperature of between 12 and 16 degrees Celsius. Shoved under the bed won’t do.
Many modern wines do not need to be aged over a great period of time; therefore extensive cellars are often unnecessary. Having said this, if you have the time, space and resource to excavate a cellar, your wine will surely benefit. A purpose built cellar is not normally an option for most households and so suitable alternatives must be explored.
Ideal areas for storage include a corner of a garage, garden shed, an unused fireplace or a cupboard that is against an outside wall.
