Nate V asked:
I did some reading on this and I realize that it ages it really quickly. But is that really such a bad thing? Doesn’t that just cut the amount of time I have to wait? Also, I don’t drink a lot of wine, so will I even be able to tell the difference? The reason I ask is because I have a wine rack in my kitchen that isn’t temp controlled and the necks of the bottles are exposed to the light. For a casual wine drinker is it ok for them to sit for a year or so in my makeshift wine rack.

It’s not really ‘bad’ per-say, but they would be better off in a cooler, darker place. Maybe if you have a pantry or an empty cupboard. They certainly will not last as long as they would with proper storage (on their sides in a cellar), but they won’t exact spoil quickly from your setup…
The wine will turn bad it store it it turns the difference in wine when its bad quick as the difference in cool.
For short period of time it less convenient if you really keep it less than month after purchase you really keep it for whole month after purchase you really keep it wouldnt be problem cabinet or closet might be.
It’s not really bad. Just store your wine in a cabinet.
The hotter the temperature you may end up with vinegar.
