There comes a time in your life as a wine enthusiast when you take a leap and decide that you are ready to purchase more than just one bottle of a wine you have taken a liking to. The bug can strike at any time and once bitten we are taken on a journey of acquiring more and more of the wine that we enjoy.
There are many good reasons for wanting to store wine you love. We find a wine we like, and when we go back to purchase another bottle we are advised that it is sold out and the winery no longer has any stock .
Wineries make a finite supply of good quality wine and even less quantities of great wines. So when you discover a wine you love it makes good sense to purchase 2-4 extra bottles of the wine and then suitably store them so that they maintain their quality, and can age gracefully while waiting to be consumed.
Storing wine correctly in a temperature and humidity controlled environment is essential in order to assist the managed aging process of the wines being stored and one of the best cellars I have come across recently is a BYO (Build your Own) Wine Cellar - either a single cabinet version that can hold 160 bottles, or a double cabinet version that is capable of holding 320 bottles of wine.
160 bottles? 320 bottles? Is that enough storage capacity for wine??Storage capacity of up to 320 bottles is definitely enough cellar space, unless you are throwing dinner parties with huge numbers of guests every other weekend.
A few years back I built a wine cellar in my house that could hold nearly 3000 bottles of wine. I proceeded to fill up the wine cellar as my passion for wine grew however it got to the point where there was no way I could consume all the wine I had cellared and unfortunately some of my wines spoilt before I could consume them. After selling my house a new owner proceeded to do the exact same thing! You don’t require wine storage capacity for 3000 bottles of wine is the point that I am making! A BYO deluxe wine cellar is an inexpensive option to buy and assemble in your own home, providing you with a temperature and humidity controlled wine cellar with more than enough capacity for all your wine cellaring needs.
First things are to determine the amount of wine you are realistically going to cellar, then check your living space for a suitable location probably in your living room, dining room, or your den - and no renovations are required.
