Swisscave Wine Fridges

Why Invest in a Swisscave Wine Fridge? 

Swisscave has designed and manufactured wine fridges for a long time and they've taken the opinions of wine connoisseurs feedback into their design considerations. 

They supply wine storage solutions across the UK, Europe and around the rest of the world. From the material used to the full-length glass door, to the beautifully smooth wooden shelving - every aspect of a Swisscave oozes quality. 

 

A Choice of Swisscave Wine Fridges

When searching for a Swisscave wine cooler, you will see that their units are available in a wide variety of lengths, widths and bottle capacities.

While most units can be positioned freestanding or built in, with the exception of the WL120F and the integrated kitchen range. While most products are available with either single-zone or dual-zone cooling technology.

 

1. Classic Models

Models with the WL notation in the product name (WL455F, WL155F...) are Classic Swisscave coolers.

These models are ideal for a wine collector looking to store their wines in style, especially, when you have a discreet location in mind such as a cozy unused corner or a utility space.

The Classic range is brimming with features including contemporary blue LED side and over head lighting, elegant UV protected black door and convinient sliding shelves on smooth, telescopic pull out rails.

If you're looking for a compact, under counter wine fridge, we recommend the Swisscave WL155DF (Price £1,539) with a black anodized metal handle.

 

2. Premium Swisscave Wine Coolers

For the wine conisseur looking to add a true show stopping piece to a kitchen, living or dining space, models starting with WLB (WLB160F, WLB460DF...), are sure to be appealing.

Designed to be a feature wine cooling appliance, these models offer luxurious filigree metal trim doors and a choice of three lighting modes: blue, warm white and bright white. 

There are more shelves included within Premium models than their Classic counterparts and the deluxe models like the Swisscave WLB460DFLD include stylish "bottle view" display shelves.

These models are also quieter and more energy efficient thanks to a vibration-free and rubber bearing compressor.

 

Essential Storage Features & Benefits

Swisscave wine coolers are equipped with several design features that are there to create the most ideal conditions for the storage of wine. 

 

1. Precise Temperature Control

Store your wines in a temperature-controlled environment, ensure full enjoyment for your guests and friends, and shield your collection from premature aging or bad tasting notes. Take full control of your wines conditions with the elegant digital temperature control and display.

 

• Single Temperature: one, accurate temperature zone for storing wines at a consistent, precise temperature, like white and sparkling wines chilled at 5-9°C. Single zone models have the letter "F" in the product name.
  
• Dual Temperature: separate temperature compartments (also known as multi-zone) let you store white wines like Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio at 7-10°C and red wines like Bordeaux and Burgundy at 13-19°C in the same storage device. Dual zone wine fridges have the letters "DF" in the product name.
  
• Humidity: Managed by the internal system and kept constant between 55-85% ensuring corks don't dry out and mould is not an issue within the unit.
  

 

2. Stylish Display Shelves

These Swisscave wine coolers are all equipped with exclusive shelves that run on ball bearings and are constructed from either Beech wood or Sapele wood, which has a similar finish to Mahogany.

These shelves are not only incredibly easy to slide back and forth but they look seamless and sleek behind the glass.

You can also remove the shelves so that your cooler can hold larger bottles such as Magnums and Double Magnums with ease.

 

3. Versatile Bottle Storage

Larger wine fridges we offer have bottle capacities between 140-230 Bordeaux bottles while smaller under-counter units can store around 50-100 Bordeaux bottles (750ml). 

Uniquely, products labelled with "MIX" include an equal share of Burgundy and Bordeaux suited shelves - so your entire selection fits neatly in their new home.

 

4. Multi Coloured Interior Lighting

Generate attention across a feature wine display behind a bar and use side and overhead lighting (featured in many premium chillers) to attract attention, inspire conversation, and generate ambience.

Dramatic LED lighting (choice of white, warm white, and blue in the Premium and Deluxe products) highlights bottle labels allowing customers to satisfy their intrigue and make choosing their next bottle an engaging experience.

An excellent example of these presentation features is seen in the 200 Bordeaux and Burgundy bottles, Swisscave WLB460DFLD, which features 7 elegant display shelves positioned at a tilted angle - ideal to highlight labels. 

 

5. Quiet, Premium Compressor

These Swisscave wine coolers run on an efficient, high-quality Ebraco Fullmotion compressor, mounted on rubber bushes works in harmony with the fan cooling system to ensure the cooler is extremely quiet in operation. Also, protecting your wines from unnecessary vibrations.

Some models are whisper-silent at 36-37 dB (ideal for an intimate high-end kitchen space), while Classic models are 38-39 dB. Installed in cabinetry, any noise generated by the vibration-free, compressor will be further dampened by carpentry.

 

6. Triple-Glazed UV Protected, Lockable Door

Another feature that Swisscave wine coolers are equipped with is UV filtered glass. This ensures that no UV rays from the sun will be able to enter into the unit and damage the wine.

All of the units are also equipped with locks which ensure that your wine collection will be safe and out of reach of children.

Large models are fitted with 2x charcoal filters, while smaller products have 1x filter ensuring the coolers are suitable for use as a long term wine cabinets.
