The temperatures can be set differently for the upper zone and lower zone in the multi-temperature wine cabinets of the GrandCru range. Innovative climate technology is employed to create temperature layers, so that red or white wines, and even champagne, can be stored at perfect drinking temperatures.
Up to 182 bottles can be stored at serving temperature in these models. The wooden shelves are height-adjustable to accommodate the individual wine selections. The upper and lower temperature range is displayed digitally in the electronic control unit in the multi-temperature wine cabinets of the GrandCru range.
Serving sparkling wine
Sparkling wines are more than just an aperitif, or a drink to pique the taste buds before a festive
dinner. They are a great accompaniment to a host of dishes. They go very well with seafood, poularde in a creamy sauce, mushroom dishes or even with a mature cheese.The simpler, fruity sparkling wines are ideal appetisers when chilled well to temperatures between +5 °C and +8 °C. Then their refreshing acidity is at it ́s best. The following rule of thumb for sparkling wines applies: the warmer the outside temperature, the cooler the serving temperature of the wine. The wine warms quickly in the glass and so it should be colder right from the start. On the other hand, vintage sparkling wines are more complex in character and need a higher temperature of between +9 °C and +12 °C to
develop to their full bouquet.
Connoisseurs go for magnum
Large wine bottles have an almost irrepressible fascination for connoisseurs of wine. The distinction between large and small bottles is most striking when it comes to sparkling wines. They mature better in magnum bottles primarily because the the ratio of oxygen to wine is lower 12 and therefore the wine matures at a slower pace. This is essentially the reason why sparkling wine from large bottles is usually much more sprightly and fresh on the palate.
