For those that have a proper cellar... its fine to just pour & decant and leave the carrafe in the cellar until you are ready to go. Actually, as long as you are good with your timing, your normal housefold refrigetaror also works, but make sure to cover the decanter mouth with plastic wrap so that the odors of the refrigerator dont come into play.
