Should dom perrignon be stored in the refrigerator?

Question

Should dom perrignon be stored in the refrigerator?

Answer 1

NO!  Prolonged storage in a refrigerator will make the cork shrink, oxidizing the wine.

Store it in a cool, dark place, laying on its side.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

You should store it in cellar temperatures, Around 58 degrees....

Answer 3

Short term (a few weeks), the fridge is okay, but less than ideal.  Unless you live in Death Valley, you should be able to find a cool, dark place to store.  If you don't have a basement, a bedroom closet is a decent option, assuming you run an AC in the bedroom when very hot out.  But anything less than a proper environment should only be temporary.  If you plan on holding for a year plus and don't have a basement or other area that stays cool and dark year round, you should either buy a six bottle wine storage unit or find a wine club that rents locker space.

Answer 4

i wouldn't store it in the fridge but would advise chilling before necking it

Answer 5

temperature of around 50 deg F but unless you have a underground cellar that might be a bit hard

but next best thing a cool, dark place

Answer 6

Better than the counter but far from ideal. A basement would be better. The vibration in the fridge is bad for the booze!
