The Best Way to Choose a Wine Bottle Cooler

The sizes and styles of wine bottle cooler that are made is tremendous. An individual will find coolers that are very small and will only hold a few bottles of wine. Or, one may see huge coolers that are slightly smaller than a wine cellar. Deciding what size and style of cooler will be most appropriate for the individual wine collector can be a challenge.

An individual who consistently collects wines and has several bottles in different locations throughout their home will want a large, permanent cooler that will hold up to a hundred bottle of wine. These coolers are usually placed in a basement or other location away from the interior of the home because of their massive size.

The wine bottle cooler should be able to accommodate twice the number of bottles of wine that are placed in it. In order to get the proper air flow around the bottles one will want to place the bottles farther apart than many wine coolers allow. A bottle cooler that is made with space that is less than a half inch between each bottle will not allow air to flow as well as when the bottles are over one inch apart.

There are many prices and styles available in bottle coolers. If one wants to include a cooler as a permanent piece of furniture in an entertainment room, they may select a cooler that is styled like a piece of cabinetry. These coolers do not look like a cooler and the fixtures are in the back of the cabinet and do not show.

Keeping the wines in separate wine bottle coolers will assure that the collectible wine is not opened inadvertently during a party or event. It will also be in a cooler that is not opened as often as the drinking wine cooler so will not be exposed to any changes of temperature.

Once a person has their first bottle cooler, it quickly fills. Therefore, it is important to buy a cooler that will hold the amount of wine that one feels will be reasonably collected during a six month period. In most cases the cooler will fill at twice the expected rate.
