Many people make the mistake of thinking that by just keeping their wine in a normal kitchen refrigerator they will conserve quality and they wonder why other people rave on about having a wine refrigerator. As far as wine drinkers are concerned, though, red wine at normal kitchen refrigerator temperature becomes far too cold for drinking. So too with white wine; there’s a limit to how much this should be chilled also.

To get the very best out of your wine collection, always store the wine at the correct temperature. Letting the wine get too warm will affect the taste and overall quality. This is where the importance of choosing a wine bottle refrigerator comes into consideration and you think: How big a unit do I want? How many bottles will I be storing? How will it look on display? Do I want a wooden or a stainless wine refrigerator? How much will it cost?

Like most household appliances there are many different brands to choose from. People are aware of the leading manufacturers in the household goods category: LG, Westinghouse, Avanti, Whirlpool, Viking, Electrolux, etc. The brand name is not the main thing, though, as price will probably be a more determining factor when choosing a unit.

If you are considering a stainless wine refrigerator, you will most likely give a lot of consideration to a unit with dual zone temperature control. This set-up will allow you to store your prized bottles of red as well as your whites.

As a keen wine collector, I have never regretted purchasing a wine bottle refrigerator to keep my wine collection in pristine condition. I opted for a stainless wine refrigerator to blend in with my apartment surroundings.

Shop around before purchasing a wine refrigerator. Good discount prices are available if you are prepared to do diligent research. I purchased my unit online and have yet to find a better deal elsewhere.

The Vinotemp Wine Refrigerator that I purchased, for example, is one of the best brands on the market. It allows wine collectors to store their wines without having to resort to underground cellars. The unit has a well-lit interior, security lock, traditional thermoelectric cooling, and exterior LED display.

If you are wine collector, you want to be able to pull out a bottle of wine and have a good idea before having it with your meal that it will taste just right. If you are having friends over to your house to sample one of your favorite wines, you want an assurance of quality before opening a bottle. Only through storing your wines in a wine bottle refrigerator can you have such assurance.
