Generally between 2-10 years.
The older the wine, the better. The vintage on the red wine refers to the year it was brewed. Most (99%) wines do not have the ability to age. The best drinking period depends on different wines, generally between 2-10 years.
Only a small number of particularly good wines have the ability to age. Some top French and Italian red wines have the ability to age for decades or even hundreds of years. Many wines from Bordeaux's top wineries are still suitable for drinking even if they have been preserved for more than a century.
Wine needs tannin (tannic acid) for aging, and Cabernet Sauvignon (grape variety) is the most suitable for aging among many grape varieties due to geographical factors and its characteristics. Temperature for storing red wine:
Usually the best temperature for storing wine is 10°C. Generally speaking, temperatures between 7 and 18°C ??will not cause damage. Try to avoid temperature fluctuations in the wine cellar: unstable temperatures will have a certain impact on the quality of the wine. Try to avoid long-term storage of wine above 20°C, nor below 0°C, as this will cause the wine to accumulate stones, thereby reducing the acidity of the wine.
It is best to keep the temperature at which wine is stored constant, and short-term temperature fluctuations need to be avoided as much as possible. Generally, the higher the temperature, the faster the wine matures; when the temperature is low, the wine will grow slower.
Of course, the changes in ripening speed also vary depending on the grape varieties and brewing methods used for winemaking. Generally speaking, the optimal storage temperatures required for different wines are as follows:
Semi-sweet and sweet red wines 14-16℃; Dry red wines 16-22℃
Semi-dry Red wine 16-18℃, dry white wine 8-10℃
Semi-dry white wine 8-12℃, semi-sweet and sweet white wine 10-12℃
Brandy below 15℃ Champagne (Sparkling wine) 5-9℃
