EQUIPMENT
The climate control system
According to advice from specialists, the ideal temperature for storing wine is around
12°C, within a bracket of 10 to 14°C. Do not confuse this with service temperature,
which varies between 5 and 18°C, depending on the specific nature of the wine.
It is especially important to avoid sudden changes in temperature. Designed by
specialists for oenophiles, this appliance, unlike a simple refrigerator, takes into account
the sensitivity of grand cru wines to sudden variations in temperature by ensuring the
close control of a constant average temperature.
The anti-vibration system
The refrigeration compressor is equipped with special dampers (silent-blocks) and the
inner space is insulated from the body by a thick layer of polyurethane foam. These
characteristics prevent the transmission of vibration to your wines.
Defrosting
Your appliance is equipped with an automatic defrost cycle. When a cooling cycle
finishes, the appliance's refrigerated surfaces are defrosted automatically. The defrost
water is channeled into a condensates evaporation tray which is located in the back
of the appliance near the compressor. The heat produced by the compressor then
evaporates the condensates collected in the tray.
LOADING
The maximum recommended loading quantities for bottles are given as guidelines and
are indicative only; they provide a quick estimate of the size of the appliance (similar to
the capacity of a refrigerator expressed in litres).
They correspond to tests conducted with a standard bottle: the standard "75 cl light
Bordeaux" bottle - standards apply the geographical origin of each bottle shape
(Bordeaux, Burgundy, Provence, etc.) and a type (traditional, heavy, light, flute, etc.),
each with its own diameter and height.
In reality and in extreme cases, you could store more bottles by stacking the same type
of bottle without using shelves, but a varied cellar comprises a wide variety of bottles
and the practical aspect of everyday cellar management limits its capacity. You will
therefore probably load the appliance a little less than the recommended maximum.
