Points to Remember While Buying Champagne Cooler Vintage

Posted by Robert H. Ballard on February 15th, 2021

Champagne is a staple at parties and celebrations. It is usually served in an optimal temperature of 47 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit, as anything colder could  numb your taste buds. So, it is not advisable to chill a bottle in a freezer, nor should you pour it in a pre-chilled glass because it will lose the sparkle, which the drink is known for. The best way to chill it is to place it a wine ice bucket, specifically one that is designed for champagne. A champagne cooler with a vintagedesign should be a good choice, especially if you want an elegant and aesthetically pleasing container that will keep the bottle chilled in the right temperature.

Finding a champagne cooler should be easy as you can search for it online. But what if you want it to have a timeless, vintage design? A good wine ice bucket will significantly enhance the taste and experience of drinking champagne, and it will reduce the need to go back and forth to the fridge. Here are some points to help you buy the right one:

• Identify the material – A champagne cooler with a vintage design is usually made of durable, excellent materials like stainless steel, silver, and steel, all of which provide an undeniable aesthetic value. Among these, stainless steel is preferred because it is less likely to corrode and break easily. It just requires some cleaning, scrubbing, and polishing to keep it sparkling. Alternatively, you can go for silver  for its age-old charm.

• Look for insulation – Check the features of the cooler for insulation capabilities, which can be useful when you are having champagne outdoors. On humid days, the ice and the champagne’s quality may be affected. Moisture may also speed up corrosion on certain materials, but proper insulation can help prevent it. Ideally, insulation should preserve the coldness in the bucket, while preventing condensation outside.

• Make sure it fits your stand – Do you have a wine bucket stand at home? Make sure it can accommodate the champagne cooler with a vintage design. Otherwise, look for a cooler that comes with its own stand, which must be durable and stable.
