Vintec wine cabinets met the specific requirements of the client for a storage solution that would preserve their wine collections.

Located in a sought-after enclave in Broadbeach Waters QLD, this exceptional residence on the waterfront is a knockdown and new build featuring a two-storey home with basement flood storage, aboveground pool, and spacious living and entertaining areas.

The contemporary and impressive appeal of this residence and the 4 Vintec wine cabinets situated adjacent to the kitchen and living area are a complete match made in heaven, making for an ideal overall showcase and enjoyment experience.

The Vintec cabinets featured in this build are:

  • 3 x 198-Bottle Multi-Temp (or Single Zone) Wine Cabinets (Model V190SG2E-BK)
  • 1 x 35-Bottle Single Zone Wine Cabinet (Model VWS035SBB).

During the design stage, the client was originally looking for a fully refrigerated wine room, equipped with both humidity and temperature controls to preserve their precious red and white wine collections. However, once the team at DB Build communicated the features and benefits of the Vintec cabinet ranges on offer, the client embraced the need for two different types of Vintec cabinets.

Vintec wine cabinets

One was the V190SG2E-BK tall model, which allowed for temperature-controlled storing of the client’s red wine collection, while the second underbench model VWS035SBB preserved the white wines with a cooler serving temperature. The combination of both cabinets was not only within the construction budget but also ensured maintenance and electricity costs were kept to a minimum, combined with maximum wine bottle storage sought by the client (spanning over 500 bottles).

The elegant borderless black glass finish of each cabinet fits in seamlessly with the premium look and feel of the entire space. The compressor in each is quiet and energy efficient, slowly and gently cooling with greater temperature control. Built with rubber shock absorbers, it minimises vibration transmission, so that wines are stored in a calm environment, protected from vibrations, where they can mature steadily.

The Vintec tall cabinets showcased here also feature:

  • Energy-efficient, UV-free LED lighting, which provides great visibility of wine collections while keeping them safe from damaging UV light.
  • Unique, flexible shelving, which offers the possibility to store bottles horizontally and neck-to-neck (thanks to specially designed grooves), or, the ability of storing bottles upright in ‘Hospitality mode’ for greater visibility and accessibility due to their flat surface.
