Wine Cellar Refrigeration Installation Done Right – Orange County CA Coto de Caza Project

Here is a bit more detail on our recent custom wine cellar project in Coto de Caza, Orange County California.  For those interested specifically interested in the refrigeration of a wine cellar and the impact the mechanical components may have on their home.

A custom wine cellar should to look good and the mechanical system should not be noticed if we have done our job right.  While you are here, check out the home’s Coto de Caza setting and California view!  Also visit the main project page Wine Cellars California – Coto de Caza Custom Falcon Ridge.

Wine Cellar Refrigeration Installation — Line Set & Condenser Custom Project
In the video we show you how we placed the line set (the tubes) that link the two parts of the split refrigeration system together below ground and replaced the patio stones so that they cannot be seen.  The big advantage of this is that less room is taken up in the wine room itself and noise is generated by the mechanical aspect of the wine cooling system.

This system was installed by our partner, Arctic Metalworks who are a specialist Orange County based wine cellar refrigeration systems installation and maintenance company.

New Jersey Residential Wine Cellars Design Office

Master wine cellar builders Coastal Custom Wine Cellars owner Jerry Wilson commented, “New York and New Jersey are high demand areas purpose built wine rooms and wine storage facilities.  People who are avid wine collectors seem to be particularly concentrated in these locations. In addition we see a growth in businesses wanting to offer high end wines in their restaurants and hospitality commercial premises.  In these establishments, traditional, transitional and contemporary wine displays help the businesses to present themselves as knowledgeable, often employing sommeliers to regularly present their wines.

An improved, often spectacular display of wines is a key part of their strategy to increase client flow and margins per visitor.  To better serve the needs of this growing market we have invested in a local office.

Custom Wine Cellar Design and the optimal Storage of Red and White Wines

Storing and Aging White Wines Custom Wine Cellar Designs Helpful TipsWhen discussing wine storage temperatures, red wines are almost always the focus of attention. Climate controlled or refrigerated wine cellars whether custom built in a home or designed specifically for commercial settings are usually kept at 57 degrees.

The topic of ideal storage temperatures for white wines as well as Champagnes should also be considered.

If your wine collection typically consists around 50 bottles there are numerous mini cellars, usually described as wine refrigerators or wine cabinets.  Many of these products offer dual zone temperature control.  To create two temperature zones for the larger environment of a custom wine cellar is sometimes done but the process can be quite costly.  A dual temperature zone wine cellar design needs to be carefully planned and usually only makes sense in the very largest of wine cellars.

Generally speaking most people tend to consume whites fairly quickly, as against storing them for a long period; however a serious wine collector will want to look after their collection of whites and rosé wines just as diligently.

Storing and Aging White Wines in a Wine Cellar – Helpful Tips

Wine Cellars by Coastal Optimal Wine Serving Temperatures

In most cases, red wines are served at a temperature cooler than room temperature and white wines are ideally served chilled.  Should wines are served too warm they have a tendency to taste top-heavy.  When wines are served too cold the natural flavor and bouquets can be hidden.  To serve your wines just the right temperature, this table may be of help.

Ideally one would store white and sparkling wines at 45-50°F degrees, conveniently keeping them close to serving temperature of a recommended 48°F. However, as you will probably be storing red and white wine together in a wine cellar, a cool 55°F is a happy medium that will safely accommodate both types of wine for long term storage.

Another way to keep whites even cooler and closer to serving temperature is to store your whites near the bottom of your wine racks.  As warmer air rises, it is a fact that the temperatures near the floor will be cooler than the temperature near the ceiling.  Depending on circumstances of your wine cellar, you will typically see a 4-6F degree difference from top to bottom.

The installation of an appropriate wine cellar refrigeration system is implicit in the above article.  Click here to learn more about wine cellar cooling systems.

Library Style Rolling Ladders for Custom Wine Cellar Designs

At Wine Cellars by Coastal our network of National Wine Cellar Builders, are often asked about the possibility of including one or more library style rolling ladders into our custom wine cellar designs

Wine Cellar Rolling Ladder Styles & Finishes

Commercial Custom Wine Cellars, Design in Library Style Rolling Ladders

Wine cellar rolling ladders are available in a wide variety of natural wood variations and with our aluminum ladders there is an extensive selection of very modern looking metallic finishes.

Typically ladders are included in a wine cellar when the wine racks reach a height that most of us cannot access.  Almost always, anytime a wine cellar is over 8′, a rolling ladder is a great addition.  At this height, at the very least, a step ladder would be needed to access the wine anyway.

Ladders include options for flush and extended handrails, wheel housings styles, finishes of matte, gloss or satin and upper assembly. The upper assembly means the ladder can be affixed to the track or the ladder could have a hook assembly so that it can be moved or stored manually.  All the ladders include no scuff wheels and roll equally well on wood, tile, stone, or slate surfaces.

Some of our wine cellar designs include special recesses where the ladder can be stored when not in use.  Wine cellar ladders are great for installations in both commercial and residential projects including:

  • Home Custom Wine Cellars
  • Commercial Wine Cellars
  • Fine Wine Stores
  • Office and Retail Wine Displays
  • Restaurants & Wine Bars
  • Hospitality Wine Tasting Rooms & Hotels Generally

Residential Custom Wine Cellars, Design in Library Style Rolling Ladders

Check out these Newly Constructed Wine Cellars Created to Include Rolling Ladders

Rolling ladders are a great addition to a lot of wine cellars, especially where the room has wine racking that extends all the way to a high ceiling. Racking all the way to a ceiling and adding a ladder is a good way to gain additional capacity in a residential wine room design, whilst at the same time making the inventory easily accessible.

Rolling ladders are easy to install, relatively inexpensive and most importantly, can add a dramatic blend of style and function to your wine cellar.
