May people have a large and diverse wine collection. How do you store a vast selection of wine without inundating your refrigerator?
A good wine refrigerator is essential for maintaining your wine collection at its optimum temperature. Wine refrigerators are available in a variety of sizes and styles.
How to Select
Consider size, shape and style when picking a wine refrigerator. Will built in or free standing be better for your home? Determine how much wine you want to keep on hand and choose a storage capacity that will accommodate your current collection and any additional bottles you might add to your collection.
Interior Design
Wine should be stored at an angle no greater than a 45°; however, it’s best stored at an angle of 0°. If you are storing many bottles, think of an adjustable shelve unit for easy viewing. Also consider an internal light if you would like to view your collection without opening and closing the door.
Exterior Design
Choose a wine refrigerator that matches or complements the rest of the room. The door should open in a convenient direction or pick one with a reversible door. Some wine refrigerators also come with locking doors, which helps you keep your collection safe and secure. |
