Wine Coolers

If you’re serious about enjoying wine at its best, a wine cooler is a game-changer. It keeps your bottles at the right temperature and protects them from heat, light, and vibrations that can spoil the flavour. Whether you’re storing a few favourites or curating a full collection, there’s a wine fridge to suit.

Find the perfect wine cooler for your collection

If you love a good glass of vino, a wine cooler truly makes all the difference. These clever appliances are designed to store your bottles at the perfect temperature, so every pour tastes just right. Whether you’re a casual drinker or a full-on collector, there’s a wine fridge to suit your setup, your style, and your space.

Keeps wine fresh and flavourful

Wine coolers help protect your bottles from pesky temperature changes, light, and vibrations. All things that can seriously mess with the flavour. Most come with UV-protected glass doors and wooden or anti-vibration shelves, keeping your reds, whites, and rosés in absolutely top condition.

Just the right size

From integrated wine coolers that fit neatly under your kitchen counter to tall, freestanding models, you can find the size that perfectly fits your collection. Plus, a 300mm wine cooler is slim enough to tuck into a corner nook to keep your claret close at hand. Handy, that!

One zone or two?

Single-zone wine chiller fridges are brilliant if you usually store one favourite type of wine. Dual-zone models let you set two different temperatures. Perfect for keeping your reds and whites ready to drink at the same time. No more waiting around for your wine to chill!

Stylish, inside and out

Wine coolers aren’t just practical bits of kit. They look great, too. With sleek finishes, soft LED lighting, and built-in or freestanding designs, they’ll easily match your kitchen, bar, or utility space. They really do look the business.

Delivery, installation, no fuss

We make it an absolute doddle to get your beer and wine fridge set up. Choose a delivery day that works for you, and we’ll handle the rest, including installation and old appliance removal if needed. Less time setting up, more time sipping!

Frequently Asked Questions

Wine coolers are specifically designed to maintain ideal wine storage conditions with temperatures between 5-20°C, higher humidity levels (50-70%), and minimal vibration. Regular fridges are much colder (typically 0-4°C), have lower humidity that can dry out corks, and produce more vibration that can disturb wine sediment. Wine coolers also feature UV-protected glass doors and horizontal bottle storage to keep corks moist, while standard fridges have bright interior lighting and vertical storage that's unsuitable for wine.

The ideal temperature depends on the type of wine. For serving, set red wines at 15-18°C, white wines at 8-12°C, and sparkling wines at 5-8°C. If you're storing wine long-term in a single-zone cooler, 12-13°C is a good compromise for all wine types. For dual-zone coolers, you can set different temperatures for different wine varieties. Remember that serving temperatures are often slightly different from long-term storage temperatures, so you may need to adjust before serving.

Wine cooler capacity ranges from compact 6-bottle models to large units holding 100+ bottles. However, stated capacities usually refer to standard Bordeaux-style bottles (75cl). If you store larger bottles like Champagne or Burgundy, actual capacity may be reduced by 20-30%. Also consider that removing shelves to accommodate larger bottles will reduce overall capacity. For a household that enjoys wine regularly, a 30-50 bottle cooler is typically sufficient, while serious collectors might need larger models.

Single-zone wine coolers maintain one consistent temperature throughout the entire unit, making them ideal for storing either all red or all white wine, or for long-term storage of mixed collections at a compromise temperature. Dual-zone coolers have two independently controlled temperature sections, allowing you to store different wine types at their optimal temperatures simultaneously. This is perfect if you enjoy both red and white wines and want them ready to serve at their ideal temperatures.

No, freestanding wine coolers should not be installed under counters unless specifically designed for this purpose. Freestanding models vent heat from the rear and sides and require adequate clearance for proper air circulation. Installing them in enclosed spaces can cause overheating, reduced efficiency, and potential failure. If you want an under-counter installation, choose a purpose-designed under-counter or integrated wine cooler that vents from the front and is specifically built for built-in applications.

Wine coolers typically consume between 90-150 watts when running, similar to a standard light bulb. Annual electricity consumption varies based on size, with small models using around 150-250 kWh per year and larger ones using 350-500 kWh. This translates to approximately £30-£100 in annual running costs, depending on capacity, energy efficiency, and electricity rates. Thermoelectric models are often more energy-efficient for smaller capacities, while compressor-based coolers are more efficient for larger collections.
