Dom box in Eurocave?

Dec 24, 2003 4 Replies

I just bought a bottle of the 1995 Dom. It comes in a nice box. At $99 USD a bottle, I couldn't pass it up! Anyway, is it okay to keep the bottle sealed in the box in my Eurocave Duo or should I take it out? Will the box have any harmful effects on the Dom or any other bottles in there with it? Thanks. Happy holidays, everyone!


Cardboard will just deteriorate in the humidity.

Hi Ken,

Actually these boxes are pretty sturdy. I've kept several in *very* humid conditions (standard boxes melt within months) with no appreciable degradation. I can't imagine there would be an effect on your other juice, either.

I'm gonna leave it in there. The box does seem very sturdy to me--that's why I asked the question. Time will tell, I guess. Thanks for your input.

FWIW, I've always seen it stored in the box. This is probably a matter of convenience. If the box breaks down - so what?
