It's impressive 346 bottle storage capacity and three distinct cooling zones make this Allavino Flex Count Series 3Z-YHWR7274-SW Multi-Zone Wine Refrigerator the ideal storage option for wine enthusiasts, enabling you to store your large and diverse wine collection at varying temperatures. Made up of one single zone wine cooler and one dual zone wine cooler with opposite hinged doors placed side by side, this wine cellar features three individually operated, well-defined cooling zones that allow you to store red, white, and sparkling wines simultaneously. You can monitor and adjust the temperature in each zone using clear digital displays with simple and convenient push-button controls, and the unit's solid wooden wine racks slide out on full-extension rollers for easy access to any bottle in your collection.
Three Temperature Zones
Thanks to this wine refrigerator's three-zone design, you can store red, white, and sparkling wines simultaneously at their ideal temperatures. The single zone side is adjustable between 40-65 degrees Fahrenheit, while the dual zone side features an upper zone that can be adjusted between 40-56 degrees Fahrenheit and a lower zone that can be adjusted between 54-65 degrees Fahrenheit. Internal fans direct cool air to where it's needed most, while a state-of-the-art compressor delivers superior cooling while remaining efficient enough to meet the California Department of Energy's strict consumption guidelines.
Wooden Shelves Extend on Rollers
Your wine bottles are stored on 29 sturdy wooden shelves that effectively cradle each bottle to help reduce harmful vibration that might disturb your wine's sediment during long-term storage. These shelves extend smoothly on telescoping roller assemblies, giving you the ability to easily view and access every bottle in your collection, including the normally hard-to-reach rear bottles.
Digital Controls
Two intuitive control panels with digital displays and push-button controls allow you to easily manage the temperature in each zone individually and provide precise control by letting you adjust the temperature up or down in one-degree increments. Once you've set your desired temperature, the display will show the current internal temperature, so you can track the unit's performance at a glance. You can also use the powerful control panel to activate the cool blue LED lighting, toggle the display between Celsius and Fahrenheit, and turn the unit on or off with the push of a button.
Attractive Design
This wine cellar marries classic elegant design with high-performance features for a superior wine storage showcase that is sure to be the talk of your next party. The sleek black cabinet with fully finished top and sides makes this unit a stunning freestanding addition to any room of your home, while the front-venting construction allows it to be built into cabinetry for a seamless look. Finishing touches like UV-protected glass doors, cool blue LED display lighting, and durable wooden wine racks are sure to make this wine refrigerator unforgettable.

We realize that there is no "standard" bottle size anymore. Here is a small sample of bottle size variations and how they can affect your overall bottle capacity. Each of these bottles have varying widths and heights.
- Bottle A is the ideal bottle size. The bottles are just short enough that the neck of the back bottles fit between the shoulders of the front bottles without touching and the 2-15/16" diameter allows plenty of room between bottles. This allows you to fit 20 bottles on the top rack in each zone and 11 bottles on the other 26 racks with a total capacity of 346.
- Bottle B is taller than the average bottle at both the top and the shoulder. If only using this size bottle, the top of the rear bottles on the rack would hit the shoulder of the front bottles on the rack and push them too far to either side to have bottles all the way across the front of the rack. On the single zone side, we were able to fit 8 bottles on a shelf, with one bottle in front and another bottle in the back, then skipping a groove before adding another bottle in the front. On the dual zone side, were were able to fit 11 bottles on the top shelf in each zone and the very bottom shelf by putting 6 bottles across in the grooves with 5 bottles stacked on top of them. On each of the remaining 11 shelves, were were able to get 8 bottles per shelf with one bottle in front and another bottle in the back, then skipping a groove before adding another bottle in the front. That would reduce the overall capacity to 255 bottles if your entire collection were this size, but you can have bottle B in the back with bottle A in the front of each rack and still achieve the maximum capacity of 346 bottles.
- Bottle C also works well. It is 2-3/4" wide at the base, but 3 1/4" wide at the shoulder. The grooves are spaced enough that the shoulder will touch the bottle next to it, but the height still allows you to fit the normal amount of bottles on a shelf for the full 346 bottle capacity.
- Bottle D is shorter and wider, and the bigger diameter will not allow you to stack bottles on the bottom shelf. This reduces the overall capacity by 10, for a maximum capacity of 336 bottles if your entire collection were this size.
- Bottle E is even wider, with a diameter of 3-1/2". They still fit on most of the shelves without having to remove a rack, but they require that a groove be skipped between the bottles which reduced the bottles per shelf to 8 on the upper shelves and 5 on the bottom shelf. That would reduce the overall capacity to 226 bottles if your entire collection were this size.
We understand that every collection is different, and we hope that providing this information will help you determine how your collection will work with this product.
