How to Store Mare Santo Sparkling Wine
Mare Santo carries the memory of the sea and your role is to preserve it.
Temperature
Mare Santo prefers quiet, steady places.
Store the sparkling wine at 10–12°C (50–54°F) — cool, consistent, and protected from sudden changes.
A wine that has lived under the sea doesn’t enjoy surprises.
A dark cabinet, a wine fridge, or a calm corner of a cellar works perfectly.
Position
Lay the bottle horizontally.
This keeps the cork moist and maintains even pressure — essential for preserving the fine bubbles and subtle marine tension inside the sparkling wine.
Keep it away from light.
Sunlight fades color, and heat disrupts balance.
This is a wine shaped by shadows — it should continue to rest in them.
Avoid Movement
Once it’s placed, let it stay.
No shaking, no rotating.
The stiller the sparkling wine remains, the more gracefully it will evolve.
One Last Thought
You’re not simply storing it.
You’re letting it breathe until the right moment comes.

How Long to Keep It
You can enjoy Mare Santo now, or later.
When stored correctly, it holds its character for up to 2 years — sometimes longer.
Over time, you may taste something deeper, quieter, more mineral.
Like the sea, it changes slowly.
