Wine Captain
Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your U-Line Wine Captain. A pioneer in the field for more than 40 years, U-Line is the world’s number one manufacturer of built-in, under-counter ice making and specialty refrigeration products.
The Right Temperature for the Wine
The Wine Captain’s unique, triple temperature zones permit storage of your finest wines at approximately 60°F (15°C) in the top portion of the cabinet for reds, 50-55°F (10-12°C) in the middle for whites and 45°F (7°C) on the bottom for sparkling wines.
Proper Storage
Model 75WC will accommodate 60 bottles (750 ml). Model 15WC will accommodate 32 bottles (750 ml). Specially designed wine racks allow for proper horizontal storage of the wine. The cork remains moist, which keeps air from entering the bottle.

Wine Selection Suggestions
Selecting the right wine for the right occasion can sometimes be a seemingly awkward or difficult task for the beginning wine enthusiast. We would therefore like
to present you with a few suggestions which may provide a little more confidence and enjoyment when choosing and serving your wines.
When selecting wines, keep an open mind and do not be afraid to be adventurous. Do not view the subject of wine so seriously it discourages you from learning and discovering for fear of embarrassment if something is incorrect. Wine is best viewed as a hobby and enjoyed.
When assembling your collection, try not become obsessed with “Vintages.” Although a chart can provide itself as a useful tool, generalizations about a specific year have led more than one collector to disappointment. In many instances an “Off Year” will provide a better value and more near term drinking enjoyment.
The primary guideline to the subject of wine you need to
follow is your own palate. Do not be afraid to make mistakes. Experiment, discover, but most of all, enjoy yourself and your new Wine Captain®.
