What is a Wine Bottle Holder Called?

Wine racks may be installed inside wine cellars, cabinets, or wine coolers. Wine racks may also be standalone fixtures on a tabletop, mounted on a wall, hung from the ceiling, or installed on a floor. As you can see, there are many ways to install a wine bottle holder or rack.

Epicureanist Wall-Mounted Wine Shelf with Horizontal Display Racks

Wine is a delicate liquid and needs the right storage environment. The best place to store wine in your home is a room or area that meets these ideal conditions. Wine prefers to be stored in a dark environment free from UV rays. Humidity is also important to help maintain the cork’s seal and prevent oxidization. Wine needs a steady temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit; too hot and the wine will cook; too cold and the wine may freeze, expand, and pop the cork. To prevent any sediment inside the wine from mixing with the liquid, wine should be stored in a vibration-less area where it will not be disturbed.

When installing your wine rack, selecting the right room is important. Place your wine rack where the wine will not be exposed to the hot afternoon sun. Ensure the wine is located in an area not exposed to a lot of foot traffic that may cause vibrations. Lastly, select an insulated room that is not subject to regular temperature fluctuations.

The best wine racks hold your bottle in a horizontal orientation. In this position, the wine bottle is held securely on its side, so the liquid inside the bottle keeps the cork wet. Keeping the cork moist allows no excess oxygen to seep into the bottle, causing the wine to age prematurely and lose its taste.

The best wine rack for you is the one that can meet the specific needs of your collection. When shopping for a wine rack, you should keep the following points in mind:

• How many bottles of wine do you need to store?
• How much money do you want to spend on a wine rack?
• Where will you install your new wine rack – will it be wall-mounted, hung from the ceiling, or placed on the floor?
• What style of wine rack is most appealing? Do you prefer traditional wood wine racks or modern metal wine racks?
