Liebherr - A Grand Way to Store Your Precious Wines
Liebherr’s wine storage cabinets lead the way for the protection and preservation of wines, from beginners to enthusiasts and dedicated collectors.
There’s no two ways about it: if you’re serious about establishing and maintaining a wine collection that will reward you over the years to come, you need to consider appropriate storage. Wine racks are always an option, of course, and a good starting point, but unless you have a place in your home where they will be free from sunlight, vibration, and changing temperatures, they’re not going to cut it over the medium-to-long term.
For those without a subterranean cellar who want to stock up on good Shiraz, make a cache of quality Cabernet, or pursue their passion for aged Pinot, a wine cabinet is the ideal solution. It’s a category that’s evolved and grown over the years, but when it comes to surety that your investment in vino will pay off, it pays to consider one of the true pioneers of refrigerated wine cabinets for the home – Liebherr.
For over 60 years, this German company has asserted its place at the pinnacle of wine cabinets through its emphasis on best-in-class technologies and contemporary design, purposely crafted to ensure the optimal storage conditions that allow wines to mature just as their makers intended. Across its range of freestanding or integrated cabinets, you can expect a host of features to make collecting wine as hassle-free as possible.
Here are two of our favourites from Liebherr’s current GrandCru range.
Sleek and unassuming, this freestanding wine cabinet adds a touch of sophistication to your home or kitchen in addition to its wine storage capabilities. Able to hold 324 standard-sized Bordeaux bottles, it’s the perfect marriage of form and function.
Key features include TempProtect Plus and HumidityControl – the former constantly measures temperature thanks to two sensors, while the latter allows you to dial in the ideal balance between temperature and humidity for an optimal storage climate.
VibrateSafe is another benefit: whisper-quiet compressors work in tandem with height adjustable wooden shelves of solid beech wood to guarantee a stable storage environment free from unwanted vibrations, allowing your wines to mature undisturbed.
The EasyFill loading aid ensures the door of the GrandCru remains open from an angle of 90º for easy filling, while the SelfClosing feature gently closes the door when opened less than 90º – you’ll never need to worry about having left your wines unprotected.
Other benefits are Touch-Display controls that put all the operations of the cabinet at your fingertips, LED ceiling lighting that illuminates your collection beautifully, a child lock, and integration with the SmartDeviceBox accessory for remote access.
It’s the complete package, all crafted to impeccable precision from the highest quality materials with a stainless steel rear wall and steel interior, matched to an ergonomically designed, brushed aluminium handle that makes it a delight to even open.
For those looking for a more integrated solution than a freestanding wine cabinet, this GrandCru could be just the thing. A built-under wine storage fridge that slots neatly into your kitchen or living space cabinetry, it’s as feature-packed as you might expect.
It too offers a low-vibration, controllable temperature environment for your wines for optimal storage conditions. LED lighting guarantees even illumination without UV exposure, while an activated charcoal filter provides odour-free cellaring.
The GrandCru’s high-performance PowerCooling system creates a stable internal cooling temperature with a contact switch that turns the fan off when the door is opened – a small touch that speaks to the unit’s energy-saving capabilities.
Despite its small size, there’s no doubt that this GrandCru is the complete package, with the capacity to store 46 standard-sized Bourdeaux bottles, visible through its UV-resistant insulated glass – a stylish showcase for your prized collection.
Wine cabinets for all seasons and collections
Choosing the right cabinet for your wine collection need not be complicated. Perhaps your collection has expanded, and you need additional storage for your most prized bottles; or, you may just be commencing your wine collection and are looking for a sure-fire, hassle-free way to begin taking proper care of your wines.
Whatever the case and wherever in your wine appreciation journey you are, there’s a reason why Liebherr has come to be seen as world-leaders in wine refrigerators. Ease of use, meticulous engineering and superior preservation technologies are the hallmarks of its entire range: we can’t recommend them highly enough.
