Creating A Stunning Contemporary Wine Display

Unless you live in wine country territory, whether your preference leans towards Napa Valley or the Bordeaux region in France, there's a strong possibility that where you live isn't the ideal place to store wine for any extended amount of time. There's also another possibility that you don't have a specialized cellar that creates the right environment for wine storage either. 

That doesn’t mean it's not going to be possible to build a contemporary wine cellar in your home. It also doesn't take as much space as a dungeon-like traditional cellar would. But, at the same time, it'll do the right job of managing your precious collection in a fun, modern, clean, and even artistic way. 

So, if you want to be able to preserve your current wine collection while at the same time being able to expand upon it, then consider getting the wine rack of today. 

How will it look? 

The best part of building a contemporary wine cellar is that it doesn't need to be in the home's basement. It can be a part of the den or study or an extended portion of the living room or dining room. Part of the design makes it aesthetically pleasing, akin to a piece of artwork on the wall. 

The beauty and designs of the bottles and the symmetry of the wine cellar will make this a constant conversational piece and an easy way for yourself and others to view the bottles without harming the specialized environment the wine is stored in. 

The colors to be used

There are two primary routes to go with this, and both of them are about enhancing the visuals the wine bottles themselves produce. First, if you have the separate space you would like to dedicate to your ever-growing wine collection and investment, we would consider natural wooden colors and set up with LED lighting to illuminate the wine racks and the display rows. 

You can couple this with brick or similar to brick walls that will give it a warm and earthy feel to your wine collection. The illumination of the LED lighting will help protect some of your wines further, as you can store them away from direct sunlight and light in general. 

If you're going to convert a portion of another room, the other option is to keep it bright. Utilize pure white walls or white marble that will help illuminate the bottles naturally through the contrast of colors produced. This setup is perfect if you're not looking for out of sight and out of mind but want it as soon as you sit in your living room after a long day and simply want to enjoy the latest vintage that you have out there. 

The racks to be used

We work primarily with both VintageView™ and UltraWine™. Both are high-quality and durable wine rack solutions and won't compromise the overall design. They both have a wide variety of options to choose from when it comes to what your design will look like. 

VintageView™ leans towards a more traditional racking system with utilizing wine cages for easy categorization, while UltraWine™ leans towards storing higher volumes of wine bottles a bit better. Again they are pretty similar and have some minor differences, but between them, there’ll be a wine rack solution that will work with your needs. 

Either way, the one you will select will be based on how you space the racks and bottles. Are you looking for a traditional horizontal/vertical setup, or do you want to enhance the art component and include sets of racks in simple patterns or square pattern racks of wine? 

Both options also allow for either the bottles to be labeled forward, or again, a more traditional look and feel by having the neck facing outward. We ensure that they are at the correct angles to maintain the quality of the wines themselves, which is the most important in the end. 

The enclosure

Since we're going to keep this contemporary, even if we're going with a wooden theme, it'll always be best with a glass enclosure. Why do we prefer the glass enclosure? It's because it'll really help keep your display in view and as a statement piece. 

You might think a wine cellar needs heavy doors to maintain the humidity and temperature levels, but we've got you covered there, and we'll make sure the right temperature and air systems are set up while at the same time able to use a glass enclosure. 

It's a great option that will always keep the wines visible while only needing access when a bottle is ready to be stored or, more importantly, shared and sampled. 

Consider the contemporary wine cellar

Some people prefer a library when they have the space; others prefer a wine rack they can grow and expand with. The design of the contemporary wine cellar can be built in a way to include a certain amount of wine in the future, even if all the bottles haven't been purchased just yet. 

Taking this step allows for a beautiful and unique addition to your home that will do the difficult job of preserving the wine, so as soon as it's opened to be enjoyed, it'll be the right flavors and tastes coming out. 

When building this wine cellar out, you will create an excellent and elegant addition to the home, whether you go with the light solid wood options or expand your existing rooms with beautiful bright marble walls. If you only dabbled in the art of wine collection, but do enjoy a great glass now and again, then this is just the right motivation to be able to expand your knowledge and grow into a true connoisseur of delicious wines. 

In addition, you can increase your collection, store your supplies, and even eventually sell some of your collections since one of our contemporary wine cellars will do such an excellent job in preservation.  

Innovative Saunas And Cellars’ Featured Modern Wine Cellar [Boca Raton, Florida]

Every wine collector knows the value of a wine cellar. Having an organized collection that can be shown off is simply not enough - your collection needs to be maintained and preserved optimally in order to obtain its full value. 

A wine cellar is a necessity, and not just for the rich and famous, but for every avid collector.

Why would you need a wine cellar?

Wine, in general, is super sensitive to fluctuating temperatures, and storing your wine in an uncontrolled environment is doing it more harm than good. Temperature and humidity are essential factors that contribute towards the proper aging and maturity of the wine. 

A wine cellar that is built optimally will control both of these factors, and ensure that your wine is not affected by moisture which ultimately creates a perfect breeding environment for mold. 

A little-known fact is that having a wine cellar actually saves you money. Think about the possibility of buying wine in bulk at discounted rates because you have a proper storage facility. And your enthusiasm becomes expertise because you are bound to gain knowledge about when the wines in your cellar are at their peak. 

No longer do you need to run out every time you have guests over, just pick the perfect wine for the occasion. The pleasure of being able to show off your wine collection with the beautiful aesthetics of a stunning wine cellar is one aspect that most enthusiasts pride above the rest. And with incredibly built cellars like ours, it is easy to see why your wine cellar can become not just the perfect environment for your wine, but a haven for you to escape to as well.

Improve the quality of your wine

Even just good wine will get better as it ages if you give it the treatment that it deserves. Under the right conditions like temperature, humidity, light, and minimal vibration, your wine matures with better flavor, aroma, and even complexion. 

The best wines are a result of consistency in all these areas, as well as proper storage with regular maintenance. Smells and odors are also an inherent part of any home, and these can permeate through corks and into your wine and alter its quality. Having a dedicated space, either your basement or any other specified area that can be used to create a wine cellar protects your wine and ensures its longevity.

Connoisseurs in every field are bound to be able to talk about their passion for hours, but even in this case, few can compare to the ardor in wine collectors. Something that every collector should want and have is a physical expression of their love for wine. 

This isn't shown in a display on the kitchen cupboard, but rather in a dedicated and defined space that is functional and oozes personality and character. Having a reputable cellar to store your wine is even more important than spending money on wine that could be spoiled if you don't take proper care of it.

Everything has its place in your home, and your wine collection should be no exception. If you're looking for a modern, contemporary design for your wine cellar, you're in the right place.

Tips for wine cellars and storage

• Location

If you're serious about your wine, picking the right spot in your home to build your cellar is crucial. The space needs to be climate controlled. A basement makes an excellent location because it ticks all the boxes, but any area can be modified to build the perfect home for your wine.

• Light and vibration

Your wine cellar will ideally be placed in an area that has minimal movement and vibrations. In addition to this, wine must be stored away from light that is too bright. 

• Wine cellar door

The door needs to be strong and well insulated. Ideally, there should be no windows in your cellar, but if there are, they should be well sealed and covered. 

• Store bottles correctly

Corked wine is stored horizontally to prevent the corks from drying out. Although you can store your bottles as you'd like, horizontal storage takes up less space, is better for organization, and allows for easier access. 

• Regular Maintenance

Your wine cellar needs to be maintained regularly, and this means wiping the bottles down with a dry cloth and checking for leakages, damage, or mold.
