Started to properly organize my cellar. Still work in progress but this is the Bordeaux side (reds). The cellar is not completely underground so needed a bit of help to stay between 10-16 degrees celcius (winter-summer). Installed aircon to help on the temperature control. Used an empty bottle filled with water and inserted temperature probe, so have a very representative view on the temperature of the bottles. Humidity is spot on with the gravel and storage system. Contemplating to have a little bar in the cellar. Perhaps other suggestions (practical or for fun) ?

If you’re to improve anything in there, just more bottles maybe!
Fun suggestion – donate some Bordeaux to me you’ll not drink them all anyway, just keep collecting and it will cost you to upgrade the cellar.
Where did you get the racks?
Nice classical wine cellar! I always feel that cellars are too cool and clammy to hangout in, so I never understand the practical purpose of a bar or anything like that to sit and drink at.
Awesome
Awesome. The house we’re buying has this area in the basement. I want to do something similar. The future cellar now has sheetrock over the studs. Where did you get those racks? [Future Wine Cellar ](https://photos.app.goo.gl/w4g5JFvHftigYRUD7)
