Another thing a home winemaker needs is a way to store their wine
while it is aging, and to store bottles for ready access, but not
for today’s use (see Wine Cooler).
I had been storing some of my wine in stacked boxes, but this
was a little flimsy to say the least. I found a 120 Bottle
Rustic Wood Wine Rack by G.E. Lumber on sale at Amazon for $75 with
shipping ($55 without).
It comes in a bottom and a half.
And then fully assembled
And here it is in use.
I put a curtain over it to keep the sum off the bottles.
But that meant I still needed a way to store backs (besides stacking them). For best long term storage, the bottles should be on their side to keep the corks wet.
For that I am using an old book case.
