Where is best to store wine and how, making my first batch so should probably already know this

I have a fridge but it's usually at 10-11 degrees, everywhere else is about 20 degrees and is it right you have to lay on side
 
As I understand it, if you use corks (some use screw top PTFE bottles) you should keep them upright for 24 hours after corking, then lay them flat for storage.
 
this time of year, anywhere - over the summer, pass. I had a good batch of wine in the garage over the summer, over 20 degrees for prolonged periods and I'm convinced it has affected the taste
