John Writes ...
I completed my cellar a few months ago, and am now busy trying to select wines(budget
permitting).
My wine cellar is below grade about 10 feet. The entire 14 ft x 6 ft room
is lined with pine planking. The ceiling is bowed into an arch to gine a true
cellar effect. The redwood racks were purchased from one of the catalog suppliers
and there is space for 1200 bottles.
I did make provision for a cellar chiller, but delayed installing it until
I get a good feel for the summertime temperatures. Last summer it stayed below
63 F and in the winter its about 55 F. I doubt if I need the chiller. The room
is well insulated and air tight with plastic sheeting, caulking, and a steel airtight
door.
I hope you like this picture
Well John .. Betsy's comments were .. Look at the floor and that neat table
.. ours seems to be safely in first place for the "ugly cellar" award. Thanks
again
