With the right builder, choosing the right wine rack system won’t be difficult. You will achieve a wine cellar that is beautiful, provides convenience, and is packed with amazing features. Checkout how Wine Cellar Specialists and Iron Wine Cellars built a residential wine room installed with elegant mahogany storage racks for the Chevis family in Dallas, Texas.

Iron Wine Cellars and Wine Cellar Specialists Worked Together to Build a Custom Wine Room with Amazing Features

One of the common mistakes in wine cellar construction is choosing the wrong racking system. In addition to its ability to store your favorite vintages in optimal conditions, your home wine cellar should also be installed with the right wine racks.

Choosing the ideal racking system will help you display your wines beautifully and store your collection safely. It will also provide convenience in accessing your favorite vintages.

The type and material of racking you use will contribute to the overall appearance of your residential wine room. Other collectors will end up spending more time and money later because of choosing the wrong wine racks.

To avoid waste of time and money, you must choose a trusted custom wine cellar designer. Discuss with them all your storage needs, personal preference and budget.

After considering all your requirements, they should be able to create a plan for your racking design that will bring your wine room to life and satisfy all your storage needs. Your precious collection deserves to be stored in an elegant wine room.

At IronWine Cellars, we provide innovative wine storage systems that will cater to the needs of any type of wine collector. With our passion, experience, and craftsmanship in designing wine racks, we can design and build your custom racking with amazing features.

We completed another project with Wine Cellar Specialists, one of our top dealers in Dallas, Texas. We had to create a design for the Chevis residential wine cellar—one that has great aesthetics, maximizes storage space, and provides easy accessibility to wine bottles.

Elegant Residential Wine Cellar Design

The overall appearance and functionality that you desire for your wine storage space cannot be achieved without a well-designed racking system. In this project, Wine Cellar Specialists chose the most suitable material and incorporated features that made our client happy.

Mahogany Wine Racks for the Chevis Residential Wine Cellar in Dallas, Texas

One of the most widely-used materials used by many wine room builders is mahogany. The mahogany tree can grow as tall as 150 feet. Mahogany exhibits reddish to pinkish color tones. Darker colors develop over time, giving your wine cellar a more attractive look.

We chose mahogany for the Chevis wine storage racks. In addition to natural beauty, this wood is also less prone to warping and shrinking.

Another advantage of using mahogany for wine racks is its non-aromatic property. It doesn’t have strong odors like other hardwoods, which can spoil wine.

The strength and durability of mahogany makes it a suitable material for long-term storage and for storing a large number of wine bottles.

Mahogany takes stain and finish very well. We stained and lacquered the storage racks with chestnut color to make them look more attractive.

Wine racks built from this wood will not only hold our client’s collection safely for years, but also display their favorite vintages in an elegant way. The racking was designed with great features, including diamond bins, individual wine racks with a display row, a solid arch with a table top, and a rolling ladder.

Maximizing Wine Storage Space

For every project that they do, Wine Cellar Specialists always sees to it that they provide their clients storage solutions that maximize space. In this project, the room is 9.9 feet high. They extended the racking height all the way to the ceiling, allowing increased bottle capacity. No extra space was wasted, allowing them to achieve the desired bottle capacity.

Intrusive Ducting Hidden by a Hand-Carved Solid Wood Panel

They found out that there was an intruding duct of the air conditioning system from the adjoining room in the upper left wall. To optimize space, the design team of Wine Cellar Specialists incorporated custom ducting to make it as close to the ceiling as possible. A solid wood panel hand-carved, with grapevine design, hides the ducting. Thanks to the team’s knowledge and creativity, a pleasant view is created in the space where the ducting intrudes.

With the expertise of Wine Cellar Specialists and IronWine Cellars combined, we were able to use effective storage solutions to create a wine room that can accommodate a total of 1,391 bottles.

Wine Rack Components that Add Sophistication to the Residential Wine Cellar

Individual wine racks for 750ml bottles with a high-reveal display row were installed on the left and right walls. The display row is used to highlight the collector’s favorite vintages without obstruction. It also keeps the cork moist by storing wines in a 15-degree angle.

Solid horizontal display rows for large format bottles were used in the top center racking of the back wall. The solid arch with a tabletop was placed below these rows to add visual appeal to this residential wine cellar in Dallas, Texas. Tabletops can be used as a space for displaying wine cellar accessories such as stemware and decanters. They also provide a great place for decanting wine.

The double-deep solid diamond bins below the tabletop are intended for bulk storage and large format bottles. Double-deep rolling case storage was installed in the lowest section of the back wall, allowing easy access to cases stored at the back.

Rolling Ladder Style for Easy Access

Residential Custom Wine Racking

With the room’s height, Wine Cellar Specialists decided to use a rolling ladder. This feature allows the owner to have easy access to bottles in the upper sections of the back and side walls.

Built in mahogany and with modern-style wheels, the ladder can be moved to any wall of the wine cellar. Each of the racking comes with a 4-inch wood section where the rails are attached. The chestnut stain and lacquer applied to it adds elegance to the room. Rolling ladders are ideal for tall wine racks and for those designed with double deep sections.
