wine storage and cellaring

[Ron and Katie]

We are interested in collecting Red wine for the purpose of letting them age, to enhance the flavor, along with enjoying it as a hobby. Can you tell me the best method for storing Red wines, specifically cabernet, merlot, and zinfandels. I do not have a basement, but do use wine racks to keep the cork moist and air tight. What do you recommend for temperature, sunlight, etc.??? Thanks in advance for your insight.
