ertificate of Pristine Storage

When a fine wine is produced, each bottle starts out the same. But what sets them apart, and makes one more valuable than the other, is the nature of their time in storage. How and where a wine is stored will determine its future. Will it be allowed to mature in a dark, quiet, controlled environment or left to fend for itself against its natural enemies of humidity, temperature, air quality, light and vibration? Today’s wine buyers and auctioneers know that properly cellared wine commands a premium. Over time, buyers of fine wine will increasingly look for storage provenance, the tangible proof that the wine has been properly stored under optimum conditions in a secure facility.

If you have taken the trouble to provide your fine wine with pristine storage, you should be able to prove it.
