Found A Wine Management Software Yet?

It doesn’t matter whether your wine collection is big or small. Wine cellar management software can help you get organized!

Yes, it can be daunting to remember every single wine bottle is, what vintages you have in your collection, and where they’re located! Without consistent, up to date information about quantity and location, finding a specific bottle can become increasingly difficult.

Fortunately, there are many wine inventory software programs out there that can help you manage your wine collection and create a perfect wine inventory system. These nifty wine cellar management software and wine cellar organization software programs allow you to:

create a database of wines you own – even those that you would like to own!

know exactly where bottles are stored

know the many brands and flavors of wine you have in stock

know which bottles have been used and which ones need to be re-stocked

map where each bottle is in your wine cellar

keep tasting notes

note wine auction information

Indeed, for the serious wine collector, a wine inventory management system helps keep your collection manageable and organized. If you’re new to wine collecting, know that keeping track of your wine inventory doesn’t have to be difficult! Tracking your inventory and its location may sound complicated, but wine management programs offer areas for you to keep those valuable tasting notes, market prices, winery information and so much more. We have even found some software that have portable pocket buying guides to help you find retail prices and ratings on thousands of wines! So, no, you obviously don’t need to have excellent memory to remember what’s in your wine racks!

Here are some programs to check out: Wine Cellar Tracker, VinCellar designed by Alder of Vinography blog, Winebanq, and The Wine Curators.

You have many choices out there, so just go ahead and try a software program that works for you.

Wine Cellar Inspirations: Designing A Modern Wine Cellar

The modern wine cellar charm is really gaining ground with more and more wine cellar projects. There is something to be said about clean, sleek likes with pops of color and use of different materials. If you are down for a contemporary wine cellar design, then we’re here to help. We’ve put together these pro tips for designing a modern wine cellar:

Play around with your wine racks

One of the best ways to give your wine cellar that modern vibe is by mixing up your racking units. Instead of sticking to standard wood wine racks, go ahead and explore other options. These days, wine racks come in various styles and materials. Metal wine racks, of course, rank among our recommendations. Metal wine racks have “contemporary” written all over them. But we also highly recommend checking out acrylic wine storage units. They are especially entrancing when used with a cable racking arrangement. Another style to explore would be wine pegs and rails. Mix and match these different styles and let your creativity lead the way.

Experiment with lighting accents

You will be pleasantly surprised at how light accents can change the look of your wine cellar. It can convey moods, create ambiance, and even change how the size of the room feels when you walk in. We are quite fond of the concept of LED lights behind metal racking. Recessed lighting on archways and wine displays also come highly recommended. Take it up a notch and try vibrant, colorful LED lighting. This will give your wine cellar a modern feel while keeping low heat emissions. LED lights are resistant to vibration and humidity, environmentally friendly. They also have lower voltage with no UV generation.

Try out different stains and finishes

This is perhaps one of our most popular pro tips. Stains and finishes can conveniently change the look of your wine cellar. You can go from “blah” to “wow” with just staining or finishing your wine racks and wine cellar furniture. Some stains and finishes are tailor-made to bring that contemporary look to your wine cellar. Our top picks include Midnight Black, Graywash, Whitewash, our special Blended Stain option, and our newest Mocha Stain.

A Very Vintner Affair

This is it, wine cellar folks – the last Tech Tuesday for Spooktober! Halloween is just in a couple of days, but there are no tricks here, just lots of treats. Today’s wine cellar spotlight is a very Vintner affair. The Vintner Series is really a class on its own and this project can shows us all the reasons why:

Project # 327475 Wood: Custom / Vintner / Premium Redwood Bottle Capacity: 400 Where: Alachua, FL Stain: Light

The focal point of this racking arrangement is definitely the Rotating Wine Cradle. This unit is part of Vintner’s Elite Cabinetry line. It was uniquely designed to showcase your wine bottles in a beautiful but practical manner. As the name suggests, you can easily rotate the display and store or remove the bottles. The Rotating Wine Cradle is available in 3- and 4-foot height configurations, in true Vintner style. That makes it very versatile. You can conveniently stack one on top of the other to as high as 12 feet. Moreover, as you can see from these photos, you can also mix and match it with other racking elements.This uniquely designed display unit will showcase your wine bottles beautifully. The Rotating Wine Cradle is available in 3-foot and 4-foot height configurations, making it very versatile. Stack one on top of the other to as high as 12 feet and mix and match it with other racking elements. The Rotating Wine Cradle is available in the four top wood options: All-Heart Redwood, Premium Redwood, Rustic Pine, and Grand Mahogany. You also get to select from WCI’s full line of stains and finishes, including lacquer.

Here are more snaps of the racking assembly. Some custom pieces were also incorporated, along with the Vintner kits. Do you like the color scheme of the wine cellar? We really love the soft golden tones on the wine racks. Premium Redwood was the wood of choice for this project, coupled with a Light Stain option. Since Premium Redwood sports naturally pinkish gold hues, these have become more enhanced. It’s a simple yet tasteful Vintner affair and we love every detail. How did this wine cellar rate in your books? Share your thoughts with us!

Golden Glow With Unstained Premium Redwood

Taking the unstained route in your wine cellar project? We say – go for it! As an inspiration, check out today’s Tech Tuesday feature. The golden glow on these unstained wine racks is simply stunning:

Project # 312970 Wood: Custom / Premium Redwood Bottle Capacity: 820 Where: Valhalla, NY Stain: Unstained

The details on both racking arrangement and design on this wine cellar give off such a delightful vintage vibe. The wine racks are all custom so you can see just how the entire space is utilized. The racks fit perfectly against each other and are flush against the walls and flooring. There are no awkward gaps anywhere, befitting of a custom creation. We especially love the custom shelving and cabinetry under the curved archway. Note that everything is crafted from Premium Redwood. Thanks to the client going the unstained route, you can really see the gorgeous grain patterns on the wood. Premium Redwood is one of the top wood choices for custom wine cellar projects. It is such a decently priced wood with amazing features. Apart from being durable and resilient, it absorbs stains and finishes extremely well. But the natural colors of the wood ranging from pinkish white to golden brown are worth showcasing unstained.

One of the accessories that really brought out the golden glow of this wine cellar is the lighting. Here at WCI, we have a great selection of lighting accents to choose from. They are made to both highlight your collection and add aesthetic value to your wine cellar. For example, the shelves here are equipped with LED Display Lighting. It will serve to accentuate the wine bottles stored. For archways, we highly recommend using LED Downlights or Fluorescent Slimlites. They are especially useful when you have a piece of wine cellar art or glass-stained artwork in your archway. Also don’t forget that you can get the LED lights in different colors as well!

Wine Cellar Inspirations: The Vintner Series Elite Cabinetry

Who says wine racks have to look all the same? That would make for a very dull wine cellar and these days, no one wants that. There are so many styles to choose from in the market. Moreover, you can even customize the racks to suit your preferences. But of course, those little perks cost money. Spending some extra cash is not a luxury everyone has, especially in these trying times. So WCI has come up with an amazing product line to answer to the need for style and affordability. Our wine rack “kits” were developed for that very purpose – to combine form and function with reasonable pricing.

The Vintner Elite Cabinetry collection

Among all our wine rack kits, the Vintner Series is the most versatile. You get a plethora of options, whether it’s for individual or bulk bottle storage. You also get the opportunity to customize some design aspects of your racks, such as wood, stain and finish options. That’s why the series has been dubbed as “the next best thing to custom.” Our Vintner line is also constantly evolving. Almost every year, new products get added to the ever growing catalog. One of those additions we are most excited about when it happened was the Elite Cabinetry line.

The Elite Cabinetry collection really took wine rack “kits” to another level. We took inspiration from some of our popular custom models and translated them into “kit” versions. Needless to say, they’ve been a hit with clients. Here are just some of our favorite picks:

[winecellarinnovations]

A wine cellar is not just a place to store wines. It should be the ideal environment where wines comfortably age as they reach perfection. Thus, building a basement wine cellar is a very scrupulous job to do and there are a lot of things you need to consider.

Before getting into all the building process, the first priority you must think of is where to locate the wine cellar. Actually, wine cellars can be built in almost any room within the house, but, it is still best to be housed in the basement. Why – for the reason that, basements have very little or no direct contact with sunlight, can be modified with good ventilation and spacious enough to accommodate anything in it.

Another factor why building a basement wine cellar is most recommendable when building a wine cellar is – there is less difficulty in maintaining proper temperature and humidity of the entire room. It is very essential to continuously regulate a 55-58 degrees and 55-75% relative humidity within a wine cellar so that the corks are kept moist and the wines are prevented from getting damaged and spoiled.

And, to make sure you get to achieve the ideal temperature within the cellar, installing wine cellar cooling units are the ones in demand. These cooling systems come in various types and sizes that’s why careful selection plays a key role. This simply means it is your homework to complete your research on what type of cooling units to set up. Since basements commonly come spacious, it will solely depend on you which kind, how big or small, the cooling units you need to use.

If you are finding it a bit tricky to figure which cooling system to put up, seeking recommendations from other connoisseurs is a smart option to pursue. Ask for advice and try to ask and add a few more things on how to make your basement the most favorable place to customize a wine cellar.

Talking about all the works of putting up a wine cellar is definitely challenging. When starting any research project, it can be overwhelming but with a little research and finding out those important fact, it can be fun. That’s why, to ease the burden you are about to face when planning on building your own wine cellar in your basement, allow us to assist you from start to finish. Why worry if with just one call everything can be settled quickly. Let us help you achieve your dream wine cellar now.

Wine Cellar Inspirations: Halloween Wine & Food Pairings

Trick or treating may be a little different this year, but it’s certainly still happening. There’s no way we’re cancelling Halloween and we’re pretty sure you guys feel the same way. Doing the trick or treat tradition within our own communities and with health and safety measures in place will keep the Halloween spirit alive. And as for the Halloween parties? We can still do in in small, intimate groups in our  homes. Make this a Spooktober to remember with some of these fun wine and food pairings:

Sangiovese and Midnight Thriller Pizza

Pizzas are a staple with parties, even Halloween parties. If you have kids around, pizza definitely must be on the menu. But let’s put a spooky spin on the usual pizza preparations. Use black or dark food coloring to dye the sauce. Shape the toppings into something resembling internal organs. We recommend using sausages, black olives, red peppers and pepperoni. This will enhance the creepy effect! For the adults, pair the midnight thriller pizzas with Italian grape Sangiovese.

Proseccos and Pumpkins

What is Halloween without pumpkins? But we’re not just talking about the decor. There’s also bound to be pumpkin on your Halloween dinner menu. We recommend some hearty pumpkin pie. Also, here’s a clever appetizer or finger food idea: pumpkin seeds. Roast the seeds with a little salt and oil for that perfect Halloween snack. Your guests won’t be able to stop munching on them! Offer them a glass of Prosecco and watch everyone have a spooktastic time. Keep in mind sparkling wine serves as an elegant aperitif. The off-dry fruitiness of Prosecco will pair perfectly with the crispy, salty seeds.

Sauvignon Blanc and Ceviche

Fancy a little seafood on the menu? Ceviche may sound like such a fancy dish, but it’s actually very easy to put together. It can be made of any combination of seafood and fish. Cook your seafood combo in acidic juices like lime or orange. Add spices to your tastebuds’ desire. You can throw in some seasonal veggies on the side like corn, or fruits like apples or blood oranges. Ceviche is a natural pairing for Sauvignon Blanc. The lightness of the dish, the fruity flavours and the racy acidity all compliment Sauvignon Blanc’s best qualities.
