​TRADITIONAL WINE CELLAR

wood wine bottle tags

Do you have any “Good” bottles of wine in your wine cellar? Hanging one of those paper or plastic tags on it just doesn’t feel right! Well…these reusable, solid Maple, tags are what you are looking for. They make those bottles look as special as they will taste while they sit in your racking! They even make a “Not so good bottle” look great! Actual size: 3 7/8"Tall X 2"Wide X ~3/16"Thick (1 3/8" Hole diameter) with a High-Gloss epoxy finish.
The Building Process of a Wine Cellar
I met with a client who had purchased a new house with, what he said, was a problem. 
It did not have a wine cellar! 


This photograph shows the space that he wanted to convert into the wine cellar.

I designed a few different layouts for the existing space and we settled on this floor plan after reviewing the other options. 
(The white walls on the plan are new walls to be built.)

The three designs below are of “3D” views of the racking areas. These are just a few of the designs provided to the client so that he would be able to see what the finished cabinets will look like.
