Fine vintage

Wine storage has moved out of the basement and into the kitchen, where it is not only readily accessible, but also a key design feature.

To ensure your wine storage blends seamlessly into your kitchen, Vintec has released two new ranges of climate-controlled wine cabinets. The Noir series features a chic, borderless black glass door and crystal white LED lighting. Thomas Benhamou, Vintec group marketing manager, says the cabinets were designed in association with local designers.

"As wine cabinets are now a standard feature in high-end kitchens, we have removed all visible and protruding handles from our wine cabinets. This enhances the purity of the designs."

The Noir and the new Seamless Stainless Steel series are equipped with energy-efficient R600a cooling gas. And in addition to storing your wine at the correct temperature and humidity level, the new models can be built in easily, with ventilation, as they have the same dimensions as existing Vintec cabinets.

Vintec wine cabinets are available through all major appliance retailers in Australia and NZ. For details, contact Vintec or visit the showrooms at Darlinghurst, Sydney 2010, phone (02) 9360 3199, or Albany, Auckland, phone 0800 550 020. View the full range and a video online: www.vintec.com.au.
