Wine Cabinets and Storing Your Wine

Storing your wine in a convenient, easy to access way is important for keeping your wine in good condition. It prevents sedimentation issues, keeps the wine out of bright lights that can cause the flavor to soften, and keeps the bottles from rolling around underfoot. A good tool for this is a wine cabinet, which provides a nice, sheltered, enclosed space for your wine bottles. Good wine cabinets may or may not have some refrigeration capabilities to them.

Custom Wine Cabinets Are Affordable

A custom wine cabinet is a reasonably priced addition to your kitchen. They can be custom fitted to any kitchen décor, and can make use of the odd nooks and crannies of any kitchen. They need not be terribly large - make sure that you buy or build a wine cabinet that covers the wines stock you'll have in place. When looking into getting one, the carpenter's mantra of "measure twice and cut once" applies.

Oak Wine Cabinets Are A Winner

One of the most superlatively elegant ways to store your wine is in an oak wine cabinet. Oak is a lovely wood for using in making wine cabinets, because of its ready availability, ease of work, and availability in light hues. If you're looking for something that will add to a kitchen décor with light colors, look no further than oak.

Wood Cabinets Add Grace And Class To Your Home

While it's possible to store wine in your refrigerator, having a good wine cabinet, where the bottles can be stabilized while they lay on their sides is the optimum solution. While it's possible to get good wine racks made for a modern, industrial kitchen, the traditional solution is wood. Make sure, when looking for wood wine cabinets, that you get ones that are well made, by a respected cabinetmaker.

Cherry Wine Cabinets Lend A Definite Appeal

For homes with a dark, robust interior layout, a light colored wood wine rack sticks out like a sore thumb - nothing is quite so jarring as seeing a well appointed room in teak and mahogany with a blonde oak end table clashing with the dark ambiance. The same applies to your kitchen, particularly if you entertain with wine. A cherry wine cabinet is one of the better choices - cherry wood has a deep rich luster and a fine grain that go with most dark to neutral kitchen décor, and accentuate the richness of a marble or granite countertop. Don't forget the importance of your wine cabinet when making your interior decorating choices.

A Wrought Iron Wine Cabinet?

If you like an old fashioned look, consider a wrought iron wine cabinet. Visitors to your home will be impressed by the beauty and functionality of your wine cabinet. Nothing stands for strength more than iron and the availability of designs are endless. This is one of many venues well worth looking into. Wrought iron is also great if you are looking for that Spanish effect or a rustic look.

Educating Peter: How Anybody Can Become an (Almost) Instant Wine Expert $3.95 Lettie Teague knows wine. She has been the wine editor at "Food & Wine" magazine for almost a decade. The only question she is asked more than "Can you recommend a great wine for under $10?" -- great cheap white: Argiolas Costamolino Vermentino from Sardinia; great cheap red: Alamos Malbec from Argentina -- is "What is the best way to learn about wine?" After many years of fielding these questions, Lettie was determined to debunk the myth that learning about wine is hard. She decided to find just one wine idiot and teach him a few fundamentals -- how to order off a restaurant wine list without fear, approach a wine merchant with confidence, and perhaps even score a few points off a wine snob. Enter her neighbor, good friend and complete wine neophyte Peter Travers, "Rolling Stone" magazine's longtime film critic. Peter Travers proved the perfect Eliza Doolittle to Lettie's Professor Higgins. As a film critic he made bold pronouncements ("This movie stinks," which could be readily translated to "This Cabernet tastes like Merlot") and exhibited a finely tuned visual sense ("The cinematography could be improved" could easily become "This wine is too white"). But, most important, Peter knew almost nothing about wine. As Lettie begins their lessons, Peter puts down his ever-present glass of "fatty" Chardonnay and learns that there is a huge world out there full of all kinds of wine. He is taught to swirl his glass to release the wine's aromatic compounds -- or esters -- above the rim and vows, "I'm going to do that for Martin Scorsese next time I see him. I'll volatize my esters for him." Thus Lettie enlightens her wine-challenged but film-savvy friend about the Facts of Wine: how to hold a glass; the vocabulary of wine; how wine is made; how to read labels; how to tell the difference between grape varieties; how to make sense of vintages; how to glean information about a wine simply by looking at the shape and color of the bottle; and an overview of the great wine regions of the Old World and the New. Finally, after many fact-filled, hilarious lessons, Lettie takes Peter to the most famous American wine region of all, Napa Valley, where he hobnobs with wine and Hollywood royalty and finally puts his new skills to the test in the real world. Part buddy movie, part serious wine tutorial, "Educating Peter" is as much a treat for oenophiles in on the joke as it is for beginners who think Chablis is a brand name of wine.

Wine for Women: A Guide to Buying, Pairing, and Sharing Wine $3.95 "Wine is not to fear or revere, but to enjoy," says Leslie Sbrocco, wine expert. And that's exactly what she shows you how to do in "Wine for Women," the first wine book written exclusively for women -- the majority of wine consumers. In "Wine for Women," Leslie Sbrocco scraps the stuffy wine-speak and deals with what women really want to know about wine. The book includes shopping guides with hundreds of recommended wines, quick ideas for wine-friendly meals, and creative tips for sharing wine with family and friends. Organized into easy-to-manage sections, "Wine for Women" appeals to all levels of wine lovers. From Sauvignon Blanc to Chenin Blanc, Merlot to Malbec, and pink wines to dessert wines, Leslie Sbrocco makes her enormous knowledge of wine entertaining enough for the serious wine lover and accessible enough so any novice can feel like an expert. Each chapter focuses on a different variety of wine, and covers what Leslie calls the big three -- how to buy, pair, and share wine. You'll learn how to make smart buying decisions in stores and restaurants. Leslie also gives you practical advice for pairing wine and food and offers insights on entertaining with wine, whether you're having an informal picnic or planning the most formal of weddings. Confused between Chardonnay and Champagne? Think little black dress versus sequins. And Pinot Gris? Think your wine wardrobe's basic jeans. With her relaxed, friendly approach, Leslie makes it easy to understand the differences between wines and encourages women to explore and enjoy wine in their everyday lives. Keep "Wine for Women" in your kitchen. Bring it into your living room. Refer to it before you hit the wine shop, or when you just want an excuse to read, relax, and have a sip of something that's really you.

Grapes into Wine $13.99 As the first to write a basic book in English on winemaking from the winemaker’s point of view, Philip Wagner has long been considered an authority on the subject, and his book American Wines and Wine-Making has become a bible for small producers and home winemakers in this country. Now, in this completely new version of that classic, Mr. Wagner takes into account the many dramatic changes that in recent years have revolutionized the American wine scene.   With the knowledge that comes from his own experimentation, Mr. Wagner discusses the new, successful hybrids that have now made it possible to grow wine-producing grapes in far more areas of the United States than used to be considered feasible. Once again he covers all the basic technical information, including recent developments important to the small commercial winery and to the home producer—from the choice of the right vines to the vintage itself, the care of the new wines, and finally the bottling of the wine: red, white, and rosé, sparkling and sweet.   There is a new chapter on concentrates for the growing number of people who want to make wine but are not close to a source for suitable grapes, or haven’t the space to work with fresh materials. Mr. Wagner describes what concentrates are, how they are made, what the characteristics are of different types, and what to expect. There are specific instructions on procedure and on the necessary (and unnecessary) equipment.   In addition, Philip Wagner’s introductory chapters on the evolution of the wine grape, on European winegrowing, and on the contemporary scene throughout the United States provide an excellent guide for the consumer, as does his concluding chapter on tasting and using wine. Peppered throughout with a wealth of historical and anecdotal material as well as down-to-earth experience—and full of the author’s appreciation of wine and winemaking as a way of life—this book is not only a useful guide but delightful and rewarding reading.

Wine $33.95 From celebrations of Bacchus in ancient Rome to the Last Supper and casual dinner parties, wine has long been a key component of festivities, ceremonies, and celebrations. Made by almost every civilization throughout history, in every part of the world, wine has been used in religious ceremonies, inspired artists and writers, been employed as a healing medicine, and, most often, sipped as way to relax with a gathering of friends. Yet, like all other forms of alcohol, wine has also had its critics, who condemn it for the drunkenness and bad behavior that arise with its overconsumption. Wine can render you tongue-tied or philosophical; it can heal wounds or damage health; it can bring society together or rend it. In this fascinating cultural history of wine, John Varriano takes us on a tour of wine’s lively story, revealing the polarizing effect wine has had on society and culture through the ages.   From its origins in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia to the expanding contemporary industries in Australia, New Zealand, and America, Varriano examines how wine is made and how it has been used in rituals, revelries, and remedies throughout history. In addition, he investigates the history of wine’s transformative effects on body and soul in art, literature, and science from the mosaics of ancient Rome to the poetry of Dickinson and Neruda and the paintings of Caravaggio and Manet.   A spirited exploration, this book will delight lovers of sauvignon blanc or pinot noir, as well as those who are interested in the rich history of human creativity and consumption.
