Wine Refrigerator Buying Guide - KitchenAid

WHAT IS A STANDARD WINE REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE RANGE?

Most wine refrigerators can be set between around 40 degrees and just under 70 degrees to cover the range of optimal serving temperatures for both whites and reds. A wine refrigerator can be set to maintain a consistent temperature of 55°F, an environment that can properly store all types of wine long term.

However, you can also typically set it to the ideal serving temperature for your wine. For example, certain red wines, such as a lighter Pinot Noir or a heavy Syrah, can be stored between 60 and 68°F. Whereas, some white wines, like a classic sauvignon blanc, should be served at a cooler temperature between 48 and 52°F to help unleash the aromas and vibrant flavors.

Regardless of your wine preferences, with a wine refrigerator you are in control of the temperatures and can set the appropriate range for your wine collection.

INTERIOR LIGHTING

Bright interior lighting, like the LED Interior Lighting found in KitchenAid® wine refrigerators, makes it simple to see your wine selections when you open the door. Select KitchenAid® wine refrigerators feature Motion-Activated LED Lighting, so the inside illuminates as you approach the unit and dims when no longer needed.

UV-PROTECTED GLASS DOORS

To keep your Cabernet Sauvignon and White Zinfandel in quality condition, look for a wine refrigerator equipped with UV-protected glass doors. Some models, like this KitchenAid® Undercounter Wine Cellar, offer UV-Protected Thermal Glass Doors that filter UV rays to help prevent the damaging effects of heat and light. This model also features a Door Alarm that will alert you if the refrigerator door has been left open for more than five minutes to help ensure your wine is kept at the ideal chill.

AUTOMATIC DEFROST

Minimize appliance upkeep with a wine refrigerator that automatically defrosts ice for you. Automatic Defrost cycles found on select KitchenAid® wine refrigerators help reduce frost build-up inside your wine refrigerator, so you don’t have to regularly empty the appliance and defrost it manually.
