Presenting Your Wine with a Wooden Wine Rack

A wine rack is a device that holds bottles of wine horizontally, or at a position where the wine remains in constant contact with the cork. It is very important to keep the wine in contact with the cork when the wine is in storage if not, the cork could potentially dry out and the wine might spoil.

Wine racks can be made of many materials such as wood, steel and stone and come into many different designs from the plain to the very ornate. They can often hold several bottles of wine up to many thousands depending on the requirements and design. Wooden wine racks tend to be the most popular choice, and are commonly used among people who own wine cellars.

Traditional wooden wine racks give the user flexibility. Many users starts with one wine rack and as their collection grows they can add more, as many wooden wine rack assemble kits have connecting systems that allow them to do this which also gives a seamless appearance.

Types of Wood

Wine racks made from wood are most commonly made from fir, pine or cedar, cedar being the darkest of the lot.
Cedar - There is often concern often the smell of cedar but after it has gone through processing, the odour ceases to exist. It can be easily stained through its dark colour for ornamental purposes, and is very durable and stable. They can last for many years and therefore are ideal for wine that is going to be stored for a long period of time.
Pine - Pine wine racks can be stacked to a desired height without far if collapse if they are secured well because pine wood has a close grain and is therefore very strong. They are light in appearance and can easily be stained or painted.
Fir - This is the most economical, and is most easily stained when in lighter shades. They come in all sizes.
