Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does a wine cooler make a difference?

Absolutely! A wine cooler or wine fridge is a great way to keep your wine safe and fresh while storing and preserving it before serving. When you have a lot of wine bottles, a wine cooler is ideal than storing them in a regular refrigerator, which can keep the bottles overly cold and slow down the aging process.

What else can I put in a wine cooler?

Aside from wine, you can store any type of beverage like bottled water, soda, juice, energy drinks, and alcoholic beverages like beer and wine coolers. If you plan on storing wine and beverages in one cooler, we offer combo wine and beverage coolers.

Shop for wine coolers and beverage centers.

What is the difference between a wine cooler and a wine refrigerator?

The temperature range of a wine cooler is higher than that of a refrigerator or beverage center since wine should not be stored as cold as other beverages. Typically, a wine cooler won't offer temperatures below 46°F.

What is the difference between a wine cooler and a wine cabinet?

Wine coolers are great for cooling wines that you intend to serve shortly, while wine cabinets are a type of wine storage for aging wine. Wine cooler fridges cost less than wine cabinets. Wine cabinets need a cabinet cooling system installed to preserve the wine for long-term storage.

If you have a large wine collection or plan to expand into a full cellar, you might invest in building a wine cellar instead. To learn more about how to build a wine cellar, here’s a Step-by-Step Guide.
