Michael,
I don't claim to be an expert, but I don't "winter" my Nepenthese other than
to reduce the photo period a couple hours a day. Even this may not be
necessary for the Nepenthese, but my other plants in the terrarium like the
reduced light during Winter.
I only grow lowlanders so this may not apply to the highland species.
Hope this helps,
John in Phoenix
