Why do we store wine in cellars? Because it’s cool and dark there.

But we can also recreate these conditions at home! For example, you could store your wines under a bed in an unheated bedroom. A cubbyhole is another option. That being said, you’re better off keeping the true gems in your collection in a professional cellar. There, they will be protected from light, temperature fluctuations and vibrations. You can rent shelves from specialist providers for a small sum of money.
