They are equipped with a range of unique and innovative features such as active charcoal filters, safety locks and audible alarms whilst also boasting excellent energy efficiency.

The La Sommeliere Tradition wine coolers are designed to closely mimic the idyllic conditions of a classic wine cellar. This range is perfect for anyone who is looking for a traditional and simple solution to storing their wine collection.
The coolers offer a wide variety of essential technological features such as an electronic thermostat, humidity controls, UV light protection and an anti-vibration system.
They can also hold between 77 and 248 standard bottles of wine. All of the Tradition wine coolers feature a single zone cooling technology which means that every bottle will be kept at the exact same temperature. This is ideal for anyone who is looking to store just the one type of wine, whether that be white, red or sparkling.
The La Sommeliere Service wine coolers are designed to seamlessly blend into the décor of your interior. With capacities ranging from 6 to 126 bottles, these coolers are perfect for all kinds of homes and spaces.

They come with a variety of functional and aesthetically pleasing features such as glazed doors, white LED lighting, adjustable shelves and sensor-touch commands.
Whilst looking for a La Sommeliere wine cooler, you will notice that their units will be categorized as either ‘built-in’ or ‘freestanding’. This simply refers to the way in which they can be installed.
The type of installation you choose should depend primarily on the amount of space you have in your home and the size of your wine collection. Let’s take a look at the differences between the two options:
Built in wine coolers by La Sommeliere are designed to be integrated into cabinets and under countertops.
As their front-facing ventilation systems mean that they can be placed in closed proximity to other surfaces and appliances, these units are perfect for anyone who is planning to or is in the process of building a new kitchen.
Built-in units can also actually be installed as freestanding units depending on your personal preference.
Freestanding wine coolers by La Sommeliere are designed to be installed as stand-alone units, meaning they cannot be positioned in close proximity to other surfaces and appliances.
This is because freestanding units are equipped with rear ventilation systems that require sufficient space to function properly. Freestanding wine coolers typically have much larger storage capacities than built-in units and are therefore better for anyone with a particularly extensive wine collection.
La Sommeliere offers an impressive range of elegant wine coolers that are designed to cater to every kind of wine enthusiast out there.
Whether you’re looking for a single-zone cooling unit that stores 10 bottles of wine, or a multi-zone cooling unit that stores 200 bottles of wine, La Sommeliere will be able to provide you with plenty of suitable options to choose from. Let’s take a look at some of their most sought after cooling units:
The La Sommeliere SLS102DZ BLACK wine cooler is from La Sommeliere’s Tradition range and it is designed with long term storage in mind.

The unit is also equipped with active humidity management which works to maintain the humidity levels between 55 and 85 % inside the cabinet. It also has an anti-vibration system that absorbs any kind of vibrations before they can reach the bottles.
