Own wine cellar – such a storage facility for premium alcoholic beverages is quite difficult to impress anyone with these days. Many owners of suburban real estate, especially large cottages, already plan for a cellar during the construction phase of their homes, where wine can later be stored – whether a few or dozens of bottles. However, it is essential to consider the technologies for storing noble beverages during the design and setup of the wine cellar, so that, in the end, they become more valuable each year, 'ripen' and acquire new flavor profiles.

Wine Cellar Setup Procedure: What to Pay Attention To?

Wine Cellar ConstructionThe process is not that complicated, but it still requires adherence to certain requirements and consideration of the room's features for wine storage. Spaces designated for a wine cellar must be able to maintain specific regimes and conditions:

  • Temperature. In a wine cellar, to create optimal storage conditions for wine, the temperature should be maintained at 13-15°C. Lower or higher temperatures will not allow the wine to 'ripen' or may cause the beverage to lose its flavor qualities. For this purpose, air conditioners can be used.
  • Humidity. A wine storage cellar should not be excessively humid. Maintaining humidity at 60-70% is sufficient.
  • Moisture barrier and proper ventilation of the room.
  • Quality insulation and proper flooring installation. The floor in such a room can be made of natural wood, which allows achieving optimal wine storage conditions.

Wine Storage Shelves

When constructing wine cellars, it is very important to properly select or custom-make shelves for storing wine bottles. They are made from high-quality wood of valuable species, including beech, ash, and oak. Shelves can be designed to store any quantity of wine bottles, up to several hundred.

It should be noted that shelves may have hexagonal compartments, which are most suitable for traditional wine bottles. As a result, optimal wine storage conditions can be ensured, and bottles are protected from damage.
