Iron Wine Cellars

Luis Vasquez – Founder, IronWine Cellars LLC

At IronWine Cellars we often work with wine cellar builders and interior designers who are trying to keep their projects under a strict budget.

Our goal is to help them create a functional and appealing wine storage space according to their clients’ budget. This requires creativity and an understanding of all the options available to wine cellar builders, which is what we know best.

We work with one of the most trusted and in-demand Texas wine cellar dealers, Wine Cellar Specialists. This company has been providing creative and cost-effective custom wine room designs for many years. It is composed of a team of designers and installers who have expertise and knowledge in wine storage and display.

Recently, they completed a budget-friendly residential wine cellar project in San Antonio. They selected IronWine Cellars to provide the wine racks for the Philips wine room project.

The room was not big, so the racking had to be planned carefully to achieve efficiency, beauty, and maximum storage space without going beyond the client’s budget.

San Antonio, Texas Residential Wine Cellar Design

Being on a budget doesn’t mean you can’t have your wine racks designed beautifully. Since the overall appeal of every wine room greatly depends on the racking installed in it, function, form and aesthetics must be considered to ensure that our clients’ requirements are met, and the desired outcome is achieved.

Using custom wine racks for the entire room will not help cut down the cost. To stay within the client’s budget, the design team of Wine Cellar Specialists decided to combine kit and custom wine racks. This helped create a display that showcased the Philips’ wine collection of 1,069 bottles in a practical and pleasing way.

Custom Wine Racks Create Attractive Wine Displays

Custom Wine Racks on the Right and Left Walls

IronWine Cellars’ custom wine racks were used on the left and right wall of the room. You will see waterfall design installed on the left wall, facing the window. With this type of display, an eye-catching cascading display of wine is created. It also allows full visibility of wine labels. The cubicles are designed to accommodate 76 750-ml bottles.

To add some dimensional flair to this residential wine cellar, and allow the owner to manage her collection more effectively, this San Antonio, Texas builder utilized solid diamond bins. This design can store different bottle sizes including standard wine bottles, champagnes and magnums. Storing up to 132 bottles, diamond bins allow storage of wines in bulk with one bottle on top of the other.

The right wall was installed with individual bottle storage, which promotes optimum airflow between bottles. This ensures that temperature is evenly distributed around each bottle. There are also diamond bins below this racking.

Kit Wine Racks – a Less Expensive Storage Option

Kit Wine Racks on the Corners and the Back Wall

A less expensive option for many wine rooms is to use readily-built wine racks. These were used in the corners and the back wall.

A solid diamond bin with arch was placed in the middle section of the racking. On top of the arch are solid bin extenders. Individual storage racks with a display row were installed on the back wall.

With a display row, the client can highlight her favorite vintages. Adding LED lighting above the display rows helped create a dramatic display of the wines. We also added individual extenders to achieve the same height as the custom racking on the left and right walls.

Using Knotty Alder Wood

You don’t need to use an expensive material to have an appealing wine display. Among the many wood species used in wine rack construction, we selected knotty alder. It has a lower price compared to other hard woods. Despite its affordability, it can add character to your space like other expensive materials can.

Knotty alder has natural rustic appearance that helped us meet the aesthetic requirements of our client. We applied rustic stain on the wood to create a deeper red color.

Another reason we used knotty alder for this project is because of its unique characteristics. The knots and clusters, which vary in size, make the knotty alder in this Texas residential wine cellar distinctive. Additionally, this wood is resistance to rot, durable and versatile.
