Choose a shelf for wine
A glass of good wine during a meal, can not only lift your spirits, but also satiate the body with nutrients, vitamins and antioxidants. If you are a fan of European cuisine, you will surely fully agree with this statement. But any product or drink can retain its beneficial properties only if the rules of storage are observed. Meat - only in the freezer, eggs in special trays, vegetables in the lower compartment of the refrigerator. Exactly the same "special" conditions will require wine.

Cabinet for wine, built-in kitchen furniture
It is recommended to use the shelves for wine bottles. Called not only to fulfill their primary purpose - the preservation of the noble drink - they allow you to make some "flavor" in the interior of a house or apartment.
The cost of this type of furniture is far from the level of chairs and stools. Rather, it is a kind of art, so be prepared to pay a lump sum for a quality product, or consider the option of creating such an element of furniture with your own hands.
Statistics can not lie, saying that more than 91% of all purchased wine bottles are drunk in the first 24 hours. But the real connoisseur of wine knows that the whole "life" of this amazing drink is a long, complex process, personifying a whole science since ancient times, which to this day continues to develop and improve.
Direct sunlight, vibrations, humidity, temperature are the main factors that completely deprive the new sommelier of his hobby, which is the main reason for storing vessels with this drink in a special cellar, where the temperature is constant, and the lack of sunlight eliminates the oxidation process.

Racks for storing homemade wine in the basement of the house
Absolutely lucky the owners of a country house, who can afford to arrange a real wine cellar, where you can enjoy the gifts of Dionysus all year round, sitting in the evening in front of the fireplace. But what about a person who, being a connoisseur of "wine art", is forced to live in an apartment, where it is hardly possible to allocate space for specialized storage?
A similar question was asked at the end of 1976, by the French founder of the company EuroCave, which produces wine racks, specialized cabinets, which make it possible to maintain the quality of a noble drink even in urban settings. But this applies more to cabinets.

But the trend of fashion trends, the cruel "invasion" of trends dictates to the consumer completely new, unimaginable, and in some places really grand designs! By and large, such furniture is selected on the basis of the design of the room where it is planned for further placement. And craftsmen or creative people do such shelves with their own hands, putting their soul into them, turning an interior element into a museum exhibit rather than furniture.

Disadvantages and advantages of wine shelves
![Small decorative wine shelf](https://designtop.decorexpro.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/malenkaya-dekorativnaya-vinnaya-polka-e1516196892241-498x590.jpg)
Handmade small decorative wine shelf
As already mentioned, the main disadvantage of this type of storage is its absolute inability to save alcoholic beverages, observing all the basic rules. Here, the wine will never properly “ripen”, and can only be temporarily stored until the next visit of guests. Or play the role of a beautiful decorative element of the interior, harmoniously complementing its integrity, which is the main advantage, not taking into account the ease of access to any bottle.

Minibar in the living room allows you to store your favorite drinks properly and beautifully
The minus of the wine shelf is, alas, not a cellar, where you can go down for a special occasion, conducting excursions for guests, going through all the gems of your collection, as is customary to show in films.

The only right decision, advice, recommendation is not here and can not be. Stands for storing wine are selected solely on the basis of personal preference. Like when metal is combined with wood or stone? Or perhaps a plastic construction from the category of hi-tech? Want to put a floor stand in the kitchen or honeycomb?

What really worth paying attention to when buying this element of decor is the manufacturer's brand, the quality of the materials used, the construction of the assembly.No one will be pleased to look at the staggering, creaking rack, which brings, instead of aesthetic pleasure, only irritation and hatred for the "Chinese fake." Maybe the best option would be to create a wine shelf with your own hands?
