Wine Reserve
Insert wine
bottles
The top five full extension drawers each
hold eight bottles, two deep with the necks
alternating front to back or nine bottles,
alternating with necks pointing inward.
The bottom two full extension drawers hold
six bottles each and are loaded with necks
facing the rear. Tall bottles should not be
loaded on the bottom drawer because
they may prevent the door from closing.

tips and
suggestions
•
The bottles on the top full extension
drawer, directly under the light, will be
exposed to a slightly higher temperature
when the light is on. Position your wines
accordingly and remember to turn off
the light when it is no longer needed.
•
Keep wines that you plan to use for
everyday drinking and entertaining on
the front half of the full extension drawers
where labels are completely visible. Place
wines for aging or longer term storage in
the rear.
•
Do not allow children to climb, stand or
hang on the wine reserve full extension
drawers. They could seriously injure
themselves and possibly cause damage
to the wine reserve.
•
In general, temperatures at the bottom
of the cabinet will be cooler than
temperatures at the top of the cabinet.
•
Position your wine inventory accordingly
(i.e., white wines in the cooler zones and
red wines in the warmer zones).
Wood drawer
fronts
The full extension drawer fronts on the wine
reserve are unfinished cherry wood. During
use, oil from hands may accumulate and
stain the wood.
•
The drawer fronts may be stained and
sealed to match adjacent cabinetry. The
tinted glass will make the stained wood
appear darker. A true color match can be
seen only when the door is opened.
•
Apply the stain and sealer according to
the manufacturer’s instructions. To avoid
unpleasant odor, keep the door open to
ventilate and allow the stain/sealer to dry
completely before using the product.
NOTE:
Natural wood may vary slightly in
grain and color.
