Default Most Unlikely Place For Wine? But It Works!

Our home refrigerator is widely known to be unsuitable for wine storage.
Unknowingly, the crisper (enclosed vegetable compartment usually at the
bottom of the fridge) has all it takes for wine
cellaring. At least for short term (1~5 years).

Consider the following:
- Temperatu 10~12º Celsius (adjustable of course).
- Humidity: 60~75% (can be further raised by covering wine with a moist
cloth).
- Odor free due to almost airtight enclosure.
- Dim environment (fridge light is generally at the top level.) and material
of crisper is tinted.
- Low vibration (bottles are sitting on a towel lining placed at the
bottom.).
Only disadvantage: maximum 6 bottles can be stored.

Any comments guys?

Ray
