Custom Wine Cellars Seattle Washington French Styled Reynolds

Custom Wine Cellars Seattle Washington Reynolds – French Styled

Custom wine cellars like this are a lot of fun to design and as we were specifically given the remit by the Reynolds to put a lot of style into their wine cellar, we’ve been looking forward to creating this page video so that we can share all the details with you!

The Reynolds are native to the Washington State area living a few miles east of Seattle in a small town called Wenatchee. As with a lot of people from Washington they are very creative and passionate people. They are also extraordinarily talented and artistic people, not only do they have a real passion for wine but they were really into detail and wanted to create a wine cellar that would have a specific character and unique look. On one occasion we had seven calls in one day where they we were discussing artistic details with us on the design elements to go into their custom wine cellar. The Reynolds were a lot of fun to work with, as Washington Wine Cellar Builders we particularly enjoy these kinds of projects.

Wine Cellar Cooling and Entertaining are not Especially Compatible

The design itself is stylized with a French rustic somewhat antique look. We created a sitting area immediately in front of the wine storage and racking area to act as an entertainment and wine tasting room. The advantage of this is that the tasting room is isolated from the refrigerated wine cellar itself making it comfortable to relax and enjoy the wine whilst at the same time feeling that you are indeed still in a wine cellar.

Many people make the mistake of creating a wine tasting area actually in the cooled wine room itself. While at first glance this might seem like a good idea, 57 degrees Fahrenheit with humidity levels around 50%, while ideal for wine cellar refrigeration units to maintain and for correctly aging wine, are not especially comfortable for most people when relaxing.

Design Details – 1,367 Capacity Custom Wine Racks Seattle Washington

The wine racks on this project were all individually custom designed in mahogany creating a final total capacity for 1,367 wine bottles. There is a lot of real hand carved detailing on the doors, panels and moldings. The custom wine cellar’s main feature wall consists of a 27′ double deep lower cabinet with adjustable shelves, and draws with individual hand carved grape vine designs. In the images below we actually have a picture of the draws in the process of being carved!

 

Carving Custom Wine Cellars Seattle

Above the drawers are glass cabinet doors with cathedral detailing on either side of a lighted solid arch feature display. Then surrounding this are two further vertical window display shelves with double hand carved leaf designed columns, topped with a detailed crown molding, all adding further style to the feature racking wall.

To complete the look of the racking as it flowed around to the side walls, we added curved racking specially designed to flow without obvious joins. The side walls were designed with feature horizontal displays made to pop with concealed lighting across the center. “X” bin style bulk storage racking was mixed with regular 750ml standard sized racking. Separating the sections we included further hand carved leaf design columns to pull it all together. Finally on the ends of the custom wine racks we decided to add the extra design feature of raised panels. As you can see in the images and the video this really added to the overall look, style and detailing of the room. Custom wine cellars with detailing like this really stand out from the average.

We also added special wall mounted LED based spot wine cellar lighting so that the beautiful detailing of this wine cellar would be highlighted and be shown off to its full potential. By using LED based lighting we do not have to worry about extra heat being added to a custom wine cellar potentially causing a wine cellar refrigeration system to work overtime or artificially generate fluctuations in the wine cellars temperature. Not a good idea when aging wine!

We hope you enjoy looking at the images and video of this project, notice the extra detail we put into simple features like the crown and base moldings and the cathedral arches and see why we enjoyed designing this job so much!
