Features
The right environment for your wines...
A vine is an extremely sensitive plant. Grape quality is
dependent on three factors: light, air humidity and ambient
temperature. This sensitivity continues even after the wine is
bottled. To allow a wine’s flavor to fully develop and to preserve
the excellent aroma, it has to be properly stored. Your wine
cellar offers the best storage environment:
A wide temperature range: The unit has a wide tempera-
ture adjustment range. It allows you to store wine at low
temperature for superb aging or at a higher temperature
for serving wine lightly chilled. The temperature can be set
between 41 to 72°F (5 to 22°C).
High storage capacity: High storage capacity allows you to
preserve the flavor of your favorite wines. Your wine cellar
can store up to 46 bottles of wine (750 mL each).
Low Vibration Cooling System and Storage: Wines
require a tranquil environment. The latest technology of your
wine cellar provides virtually vibration free cooling, helping
to preserve wine taste. In addition, the sliding beech wood
storage shelves also provide additional vibration absorption.
Additional Features
• Automatic defrosting system
• Soft white LED interior lighting with on/off switch
• Open-door and malfunction warning system
• Double-layer, UV resistant, tempered glass door, shields
wines from UV rays harmful to wine.
• Door lock
