The storage needs and goals for wine are more directed towards evolution of
the beverage as opposed to preservation.  Whereas I want to nurture the wine
in my cellar towards a hopeful optimum character, Coca-Cola is at its "peak"
right now (I can't believe I said that!).

Since Coke is mostly water, I suggest you freeze the concentrate for drinking
in 20+ years, or whenever, and reconstitute with soda water for a near
approximation to vintage '85.
