Plenty of oenophiles love both red and white wines, depending perhaps on the food they are eating, or simply on their moods. If you are one of them, you probably have a collection of both colors. And if you do, you need an Orien FSW-100 Dual Zone Wine Refrigerator.

Featuring two cooling zones whose temperatures can be set independently, you can chill both red and white wines at their own recommended temperatures. Standing alongside each other, with each enclosed by its own dual pane clear glass door, they have their own control panels that are mounted at the top frames of their respective doors. These consist of the adjustment buttons and a display indicating the set temperature.

In both compartments, temperature levels can be set to a low of 46°F up to a high of 64°F. You can set one of them to 46°F for your Champagne, Asti, or Sauternes; and the other at 64°F for your Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Burgundy. Each has ten chromed wine racks that are scalloped to prevent the bottles from rolling and disturbing the wine sediments. They can also be slid out to make storage and retrieval convenient as well as for ease of cleaning. The two zones can hold 50 bottles each, giving you a total of 100 bottles.

The cabinet is colored black making it suitable for installation in any kitchen regardless of color or décor. It features two chrome towel-rack style door handles that run almost the entire height of the doors. Under the doors are the vents through which warm air from the compressor is emitted. Because it is front-vented, the FSW-100 can be installed either freestanding or built into a cabinet.

Other features include a safety lock to safeguard your wine collection. Inside the cooling chambers are LED interior lights that illuminate the wine bottles. It also has fans that evenly distribute cool air within the refrigerator, thus leaving no hot spots in any section.

The Orien FSW-100 Dual Zone Wine Refrigerator is 5 feel tall. It is 26 inches wide and 30.5 deep.

For wine collectors who have outgrown compact and medium-sized coolers because of their growing collection, the Amana Reflection W208CG Wine Cabinet is worth checking out.

For wine collectors who have outgrown compact and medium-sized coolers because of their growing collection, the Amana Reflection W208CG Wine Cabinet is worth checking out.

Depending on the size of wine bottles stored, whether they are the standard 750 mL or magnums and Jeroboams, the wine cabinet can hold up to 208 bottles. These are cradled in 12 solid beech wood shelves that are height-adjustable.

The shelves can be used either as slide-out or storage shelves. When used as slide-out, they can each carry 13 Bordeaux bottles; while as storage shelves, you can stack up to three layers of bottles thereby increasing the cabinet’s holding capacity. Temperature range in this area is 50 – 57°F, a range suited for long-term wine storage.

In addition to the shelves there are also two other closed compartments, one at the top and another at the bottom, for wine storage. The upper section holds up to 13 bottles. It is intended to bring red wines to their proper serving temperature.

The lower section, on the other hand, is a chiller for cooling white wines and champagnes, as these are best when served at temperatures ranging from 6 – 8°F. Six bottles can be stored in the chiller. Thus, the three sections have their own temperature levels making the wine cabinet a triple zone cooler.

Temperature levels are adjusted through a control panel inside the cooler. It is mounted at the topmost section, and it consists of an on/off switch, test button, thermostat setting controls, and temperature displays.

The cabinet is finished in stainless steel. The door consists of a clear glass which provides a full view of your wine collection. It is framed in stainless steel. A towel rack type door handle, also of stainless steel, is fitted at the door’s right frame. Leveling legs are installed at the feet to cope with uneven flooring.

The Amana Reflection W208CF Wine Cabinet is 6 feet tall, 27 inches wide, and 23 inches deep.

Wrapped in a stainless steel cabinet with a glass door that is framed also in stainless steel, the U-Line Echelon 2175WCS-00 Wine Cooler is a shiny and attractive appliance that can enhance your kitchen.

Wrapped in a stainless steel cabinet with a glass door that is framed also in stainless steel, the U-Line Echelon 2175WCS-00 Wine Cooler is a shiny and attractive appliance that can enhance your kitchen. The interior, visible through the glass door, is colored black which tends to emphasize the maple trim of the wine racks.

There are five racks that can be fully pulled out for convenience in storage and retrieval of the bottles. A sixth rack at the bottom of the cabinet is fixed where bottles are stored at an angle displaying their labels. All racks are coated with black vinyl to help keep the bottles in place, and fitted with a stainable front maple trim.

The six racks can hold 48 bottles of your favorite wines. Owing to the unique Triple Temperature Zone Design of the cooler, you can store red, white, and sparkling wines at the same time. Its Touch Control Digital Technology allows you to set the middle zone temperature and automatically adjust those of the upper and lower zones. If the middle zone is set at 50°F, the top is at 55°F, and the bottom at 45°F. Thus, your red wines should be kept in the upper zone, white wines in the middle, and sparkling wines at the bottom.

You can display your wine collection through the thermal glass door. Although it is tinted for UV protection, an interior light can be switched on for continuous lighting making the exhibit possible. In case you forget to turn it off after viewing, it automatically turns itself off after four hours and reverts to turning on only when the door is opened. If it is the door that you forget to close, an audible alarm will alert you.

The U-Line Echelon 2175WCS-00 Wine Cooler is front-vented allowing its installation either as a built-in or freestanding cooler. It stands 34 1/8 inches, has a width of approximately 24 inches, and depth of 23 1/4 inches.

Close to seven feet tall, the Sub-Zero Model 427RGRH Wine Storage Refrigerator has more than enough space for 78 bottles of your favorite wines. Indeed, in addition to the wine cabinet, it has two refrigerated drawers below it.

Close to seven feet tall, the Sub-Zero Model 427RGRH Wine Storage Refrigerator has more than enough space for 78 bottles of your favorite wines. Indeed, in addition to the wine cabinet, it has two refrigerated drawers below it.

The wine bottle cabinet is divided into two cooling zones allowing you to store red wines in temperatures around 60°F in one zone and sparkling wines in the other at levels close to 40°F. The upper zone has six shelves while the bottom has two. The six shelves at the top can hold 54 bottles, while the rest are stored at the lower half. There is also one shelf that is tilted upwards from the rear which serves to showcase your finest wines. It can hold six bottles. These are illuminated with a soft light to give them a dramatic effect.

The shelves are made of durable rust-free wire racks but are trimmed with natural cherry wood at their fronts. They can be pulled out about three-quarters of the way to facilitate the storage and withdrawal of bottles.

The two drawers at the bottom of the wine refrigerator can be used to store food items that go with your wine. Cheese, cold cuts, fowl, or meat can be chilled in them.

The control panel is mounted on the division between the two zones. It features push button controls and a digital display indicating the temperatures in the two cooling zones. Temperature can be adjusted in one-degree increments from 38°F – 65°F.

The Sub-Zero 427RGRH is finished in stainless steel. You have the option of choosing from classic, platinum, or carbon stainless. The wine cabinet is enclosed by a glass door that resists UV rays. A towel-rack style handle that runs the full height of the door is mounted on the right hand side of the refrigerator. The drawer pullers are also of the same design.

The refrigerator, which can either be built into your kitchen cabinets or installed freestanding, has overall dimensions of 80″ H x 27″ W x 24″ D.

The black vinyl coat of its exterior cabinet provides the U-Line Echelon 2115WCB-00 Wine Cellar with a rich textured look that blends seamlessly with the black door frame. These, along with the black interior that is visible through the glass door, serve to emphasize the wood trim of the wine racks. These are made of maple and are gently curved softening the boxy look of the cabinet.

This Echelon model can hold 24 wine bottles on its six wine racks. These are slide-out types for convenience in storing and retrieving your bottles. They are coated with black vinyl to keep the bottles from slipping and sliding.

A digital temperature control consisting of touch buttons and an LED display is incorporated into the bottom shelf. This allows the setting of temperatures at desired levels. The wine cellar has the additional capability of storing red, white, and sparkling wines at their own ideal storage temperatures. By keeping reds in the upper zone, they are maintained at 55°F, whites in the middle zone get 50°F, while sparkling wines in the bottom zone are chilled at 45°F.

These temperature levels are reached through a compressor-based cooling mechanism. It has only minimal vibration that is not sufficient to agitate the wine sediments. Defrost is automatic thus maintaining constant temperature levels.

The glass door of the wine cellar allows the display of your wine collection. With an interior light equipped with an on/off switch, you can present a striking showcase. In case you forget to turn it off, it will automatically extinguish itself after four hours. In addition to the display functions of the glass door, it also protects the wine from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays.

Other features of the U-Line Echelon 2115WCB-00 Wine Cellar include an alarm mechanism in the event that the door is left open, a reversible self-closing door, and a Sabbath feature.

The wine cellar can be installed either underneath your kitchen or bar counter or as a freestanding unit. It measures approximately 15 inches wide, 23 deep, and 34 high.

The elegant hardwood cabinet with its rich brown hue, the double-paned French doors with ornate metal knobs, and the metal scroll work superimposed on the outer glass pane make the Vinotemp VT-Rioja4 Rioja Wine Cellar look more like an armoire than a wine cellar.

The elegant hardwood cabinet with its rich brown hue, the double-paned French doors with ornate metal knobs, and the metal scroll work superimposed on the outer glass pane make the Vinotemp VT-Rioja4 Rioja Wine Cellar look more like an armoire than a wine cellar. Its dimensions of 67.5 inches for height, 34.8 for width, and 21.5 for depth do nothing to dispel this impression.

The “4″ in the name of the wine cellar denotes its four separate cooling zones whose temperatures can be set independently of each other. This means you can store dessert wines in one zone, sparkling wines in the second, whites in the third, and reds in the fourth and chill them at their own recommended storage temperatures. Each of these zones can hold 21 wine bottles in seven chrome-plated wire racks. These are scalloped to prevent the bottles from rolling over.

A hybrid cooling system chills your wine bottles. The Rioja4 uses both a thermoelectric and compressor cooling mechanism. Although thermoelectric systems are more energy-efficient, quiet, vibration-free, and environmentally friendly, they are sometimes unable to deliver low temperatures. This is especially true when ambient temperature and humidity is high. Compressors, on the other hand, are capable of generating lower temperatures. Along with R134a, the least ozone-depleting of the available refrigerants, the Rioja4 can chill your dessert and sparkling wines to their recommended temperatures of 40°F.

The double paned glass doors allow the showcasing of your wine bottles. An interior light illuminates them for an attractive display. Apart from this, the glass panes also insulate the cellar thus helping maintain a steady temperature in the four cooling zones.

The Vinotemp VT-Rioja4 Rioja Wine Cellar is not suitable for a built-in or recessed installation. At any rate, it would be a waste to conceal its elegant wood finish.

With three separate temperature zones, the Viking Professional Series Wine Cooler VCWB300RSS can store your favorite red, white, and sparkling wines at their recommended serving temperatures in a single wine cooler.

An Electronic Control Center sets the desired temperature level in each of the three zones. This ranges from 43 to 65°F, wide enough to cover the appropriate serving temperatures for most, if not all, types of wines. Once the temperature is set, the cooler continuously monitors and maintains it allowing only a maximum variance of 1.5°.

The Viking VCWB300RSS has a capacity of 150 bottles. It is large enough for commercial use but it is not unusual for serious connoisseurs to have even more than 150 bottles in their collections. There are 15 wine shelves that can be pulled out up to their full depth to make storage and retrieval easy. In fact, they are totally removable for ease of cleaning. A special coat is applied to them to absorb vibrations and keep the bottles in place. The fronts of the shelves are trimmed with maple which can be stained to complement surrounding cabinetry. Those at lower zone have their fronts raised for additional protection from UV rays.

The wine bottles in the upper two zones are shielded from UV rays by the tempered glass door. It is held by a stainless steel door frame that incorporates a door handle that is also in stainless steel and a locking mechanism for the security of your collection.

Inside is a lighting system that can be switched on continuously to showcase the wine bottles, or to light up only when the door is opened.

This 82-inch tall wine cooler requires anti-tip brackets and boards for its installation as it is top-heavy. Because of this, it is best that it is built into the kitchen’s cabinetry.

The cooler weighs 560 pounds and has a width of 30 inches and depth of 22 inches.

Although the classification of wine is a very complicated matter employing different bases, they can be very broadly classified into red, white, and sparkling wines. Each of these has its own unique taste and aroma as well as recommended serving temperature. Wine experts recommend 55 to 65°F for reds, 48 to 52°F for whites, and 43 to 47°F for sweet [...]]]>

Although the classification of wine is a very complicated matter employing different bases, they can be very broadly classified into red, white, and sparkling wines. Each of these has its own unique taste and aroma as well as recommended serving temperature. Wine experts recommend 55 to 65°F for reds, 48 to 52°F for whites, and 43 to 47°F for sweet and sparkling wines. If you and your family and friends enjoy all three types, you will need a wine cooler that can store all three types at their proper temperatures, like the U-Line Origins Wine Captain Model 1075WC.

The wine cooler has a default setting of 50°F in all zones but this is easily adjusted to your desired temperature level using the numbered dial mounted on the grille. Once set, temperature remains constant. This, along with the maintenance of a 50% relative humidity, provides an excellent condition for the preservation of your wine collection.

The Wine Captain 1075WC has a capacity of 48 750mL bottles stored in six wine racks. These are sliding racks that can be pulled out up to ¾ of their lengths providing easy access to the wine bottles. Stainable maple trims add class and style to the racks although these can be replaced with other trim.

With a cabinet that is textured in black vinyl and a door frame in stainless steel, the cooler exudes elegance and style. The door frame encloses a thermal-tempered glass door that is tinted to prevent the entry of UV rays that could adversely affect your wine. It also holds a full-height door handle made of stainless steel.

Your wine collection can be showcased through the glass door with a little help from an indoor lighting system that can be set to stay on continually, lighting up your bottles. It can also be programmed to light up only when the door is opened providing you with light to read wine labels.

With the vents in front, the cooler can be installed either within a counter or freestanding. It measures about 34″ H x 24″ W x 23″ D.

With three cooling zones and 14 wine racks, the Miele Wine Storage Unit KWT1601VI is fully equipped to properly store a good number of different types of wines, from rich full-bodied reds to sweet dessert wines.

The temperature in each of the cooling zones can be adjusted separately with the proprietary MasterControl electronic control panel mounted on the dividing board between the middle and lower zones. Up and down arrows allow the increase or decrease of temperature levels respectively. One-touch quick-set buttons are also featured for the immediate setting of recommended temperatures for long-term wine storage, chilling of red wine, and also of white wine. Temperature levels range from 45 to 64°F.

In addition to controlling temperature, the Miele Wine Storage Unit also allows the setting of humidity levels. In order to keep the corks moist, humidity should be maintained at high levels from 60 to 70%. For long-term storage, it is best to set it at the higher level.

The wine racks cradling the wine bottles are made of acacia wood of the best quality. There are four in the upper and middle zones while the bottom zone has six. Aside from two racks that are fixed to set the cooling zones apart, the racks are fully extendable for more convenient access.

Your wine collection can be displayed through the glass door of the wine refrigerator with the help of an LED lighting system. This gives a dramatic view of the bottles without raising the internal temperature. When the door is opened, though, a ClearView lighting system based on halogen lamps takes over allowing you to read wine labels.

The Miele Wine Storage Unit is a fully integrated appliance meant to be built into an installation niche. It comes with accessories for proper installation such as anti-tip brackets and plate lugs. Although you do not need to have a degree in engineering to install it, you need the basic skills of a DIYer.

The refrigerator measures about 85 inches high, 24 inches wide, and 24 inches deep.

A wine cooler that can store your favorite wines along with your favorite beer and the snacks to go with them is certainly a convenient addition to your bar, game room, private study, or kitchen. You can leave the huge kitchen refrigerator for your breakfast and dinner food and keep the alcohol and the finger foods in the cooler. One cooler that is intended for this is the KitchenAir Architect Series II Beverage Center KBCS24RSBS.

A distinguishing feature of the Beverage Center KBCS24RSBS is its three temperature zones where you can store different types of wines or beverages. The bottom zone is equipped with two wine racks. The middle zone is also intended for wines with a single wine rack. These three racks, which are trimmed with wood at the front, can accommodate up to 22 bottles of wine. Above these, in the upper zone, are two glass shelves where canned beer or soda, bottles of water, and snacks can be stowed.

Temperature in these zones can be set with a dial on the base grille. Three LED temperature displays are mounted on the divider separating the middle and lower zones allowing you to monitor the temperature levels in the three zones.

The cooler’s body features a smooth black finish with a stainless steel door frame. This frame encloses a ClearVue thermal glass panel door that is UV-resistant. A stainless steel door handle is mounted on the right side of the door frame. A variation of this model, the KBCS24LSBS, has the handle on the left side. The cooler’s interior is also colored black but is equipped with an interior light so you can display your wine collection.

As the vents of the cooler are at the front, it can be installed under the counter or as a freestanding unit. It stands approximately 34 inches in height, 27 in depth, and 24 in width.
