Wine refigerator
Assuming you have the willpower to limit your cellar to 60 bottles, Costco
has been selling a stainless steel VinoTemp unit for US$398. It's a very good value and is quite attractive in the proper surroundings. Larger units I've seen are generally closer to US$1000. I would agree with both the comment that a standard fridge is not the way to go, and also that there is some kind of dynamic that can take hold which may make the size of this unit problematic. My experience has been that self-control (or a friend with extra capacity in his storage unit) can become necessary. > Hi Group > > Southern Calif here! > > We're thinking of buy a wine refrigerator to hold about 70 bottles of wine > in our house. > > We'll be using it for wine that will be drunk over the course of (say) a > year.
