ASID Wine Wednesday with Bradlee Distributors

For wine collectors, they see the value in acquiring a special label and the enjoyment of uncorking a favorite bottle – it’s a liquid asset to them. If wine plays an important part in your clients’ lives, they will understand the value when it comes to keeping those precious bottles stored under ideal conditions. To maintain that perfect, balanced taste, wine must be protected from the harmful effects of heat, humidity, light, and vibration. To preserve the integrity of every glass, Sub-Zero wine storage units are built with protective features that guard against the forces that degrade the quality. Bradlee invites you to learn about Sub-Zero’s advanced preservation technologies and the variety of styles and sizes that will fit the aesthetic and space for any client’s needs.

 

Come and join us for a glass of wine and to learn how to store it!
