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.
