Contemporary Wine Cellar St Louis Missouri

Contemporary Wine Cellar St Louis Missouri

In April 2012, a group of wine cellar builders took on a contemporary wine cellar project with a storage capacity of 926 wine bottles.  Meshing the traditional and modern appearance was achieved by using materials that reflected a contemporary look.  The builders used All Heart Redwood for the racking system, Cooperage wine barrel for the flooring material, and seamless insulated glass for the cellar entrance and walls.

Since the contemporary wine cellar Missouri was to be climate controlled, the builders decided to install double insulated glass for the walls and entryway for better insulation.  Seamless insulated glass also offers an unimpeded and spectacular view of the wine cellar from the outside.

Using double insulated glass can help prevent condensation from building up inside the wine storage room.  In a climate controlled environment, it is essential to keep condensation at bay.  If moisture is allowed to form it can cause molds to grow on wine labels and corks, which can ruin your entire wine collection and may prove costly to remove when allowed to infest over time.
