Whether you’re just starting to forge your own wine collecting path or you’re known in your circle as a natural born entertainer, having a wine fridge at home makes all the difference.
While you may not need a 50, 100 or 200-bottle wine fridge in your possession, a small wine fridge that chills your favourite vintages is perfect for budding collections.
With controlled humidity and minimised vibration, the fridge of the vino variety usually sits at 12°C but opt for 6-8°C for sparkling, 8-13°C for whites and 15-18°C for reds.
We’ve curated an edit of some of the best small and mini wine fridges on the market that will see your wines ageing just like fine wines…
