Selecting the Right Wine Cabinet

Selecting the right wine cabinet to best suit your needs depends on several key considerations including:

1. Location
Do you require a freestanding wine cabinet or are you looking to build it in to kitchen cabinetry or a furniture piece?

Whilst a freestanding EuroCave wine cabinet looks stunning on its own, the compact / integrated range, with its front ventilation system and slim build, is specifically designed to be integrated into your cabinetry.

2. Capacity
How many bottles do you need to store now and in the future?

EuroCave wine cabinets come in a wide range of sizes and capacities to suit your needs.

3. Aesthetics
Will the wine cellar cabinet be seen? Do you want a glass door? Do you want to customise your cabinet to fit in with you home décor?

Available in a number of colours and finishes including leather and stainless steel.

4. Use
Is the purpose of the wine cabinet to store wines longer term (ie. ideal temperature around 14 degrees Celsius for ALL wines) and/or do you require some or all of your wines to be kept at their ideal serving temperature (ie. between 6 degrees Celsius and 18 degrees Celsius, depending on wine variety).

3-temperature cabinets – for cellaring, chilling and serving wine at room temperature.
This cabinet features 3 distinct temperature zones; one for cellaring wine (between 10 and 14°C), one for chilling wine (between 6 and 10°C) and a compartment at room temperature (between 16 and 20°C). Designed for drinking and short term storage, it does not include active humidity controls and should be kept inside the home.

Multi temperature service cabinets – for serving wine
Using a process for scaling temperatures from 7 to 21°C (up to 10 temperature zones), the multi-temperature service cabinet allows you to maintain several types of wine (reds, whites, champagnes) at their individual serving temperature, in one cabinet.
