    Can you store wine in a walk in humidor without any problems? Also how long will wine last if it is not stored in a temperature controlled setting?

    Thanks!!! Matt

    KISS Recommended storage Temperature and Humidity for each;

    Wine; 55
    Cigars; 70

    You can raise humidity for wine up to about 65.

    You can also lower temps a few degrees along with humidity for cigars, but, then you start dancing around with numbers. Hence, the KISS recommendation if you're not storing priceless wine and smoke *forever*.

    Believe it or not MOST wine doesn't get better with time, only select varieties need to age in the bottle. I'd say drink it within 2 years if you have it and don't know how long it will last.
