Superb conditions for fi ne wines

T

he production of a really good wine depends on many 

different factors: the quality of the grapes, the soil, how it 

is processed, and the correct storage. Essentially, a good wine 

can only mature fully if all the conditions are right. Constant 

temperatures and the right humidity are extremely important for 

optimum storage and for savouring wine at its best. Our wine 

storage cabinets are ideal for storing your wines for long periods 

of time to allow them to mature to absolute perfection.

Ideal Temperature

Exact maintenance of the required temperature 

is necessary for the wine to mature to its best. 

Depending on type of wine and wine region, the 

ideal temperature range for long-term storage is 

between +10 °C and +12 °C. Depending on your 

requirements, wines can be stored either long-term 

or at drinking temperature in the appliances of the 

Vinidor range. The temperature ranges are freely 

adjustable from +5 °C to +20 °C.

Optimum positioning

The hand-made shelves in untreated wood are 

ideal for storing Bordeaux bottles safely. Storing the 

bottles in opposite directions on the pull-out shelves 

permits full use of the capacity. The two built-in 

appliances WTI 2050 and WTEes 2053 come with 

half-folding wooden shelves for presenting wines 

or storing open bottles. The Vinidor range features 

secure wooden pull-out shelves providing a good 

overview and convenient access to the bottles.

Optimum air quality

Unwelcome odours in the air can have a negative 

effect on wines when they are stored for long periods. 

For that reason, kitchens, pantries, garages or laundry 

rooms are not suitable for the long-term storage of 

wine. The wine storage cabinets from Liebherr have 

an activated charcoal filter, which can be easily 

changed, that purifies the incoming fresh air to obtain 

the optimum odour-free quality. Each individual wine 

compartment in the Vinidor appliances range has an 

activated charcoal filter of its own.

Guaranteed UV protection

The green or brown glass of the bottle does not 

shield the wine sufficiently from damaging light. 

Therefore, rooms used to store wine not in boxes 

or cartons should be darkened. The tinted safety 

glass in the Liebherr wine cabinets guarantees the 

essential UV protection for your fine wines.

Ideal humidity

Air humidity is a very important aspect in the correct 

storage of wine. Corks remain pliant and are kept 

from drying out only at the right humidity of 50 % to 

80 %. To keep the cork as moist as possible from 

inside, wine bottles should always be stored on their 

side. With 50 % to 80 % humidity the wine cabinets 

from Liebherr guarantee ideal storage conditions.

Maturing in peace

Peace and quiet are necessary for wines that are to 

be stored for long periods. Even minor vibrations can 

have a negative effect as they can stir up the fine 

components of the sediment. Specially developed 

compressors installed in the wine cabinets from 

Liebherr ensure that the wines are stored in a 

particularly low vibration environment.
