Best Wine Racks
Where is the best place to put a wine rack?
- Near the kitchen or dining area: If you're considering a wine fridge, placing it near these spaces makes sense so that wine can be easily accessed when you're hosting guests or preparing meals.
- Under-counter or built-in: For a more seamless, integrated look, you might consider installing a stackable wine rack under a kitchen counter or in a cabinet.
- Near the dining table or wine service area: Consider combining your wine rack here with a glass holder to store your wine glasses.
What is the best height for a wine rack?
- For easy access: Typically, placing your wine rack between 32–36 inches from the floor is comfortable for easy access.
- Counter-height: If you're incorporating a stackable wine rack or a modular wine rack into your kitchen or bar area, consider placing the rack at counter height, around 36 inches from the floor.
- Storage and display: If you’re more focused on storing wine and don't need frequent access, placing the rack lower (around 24 inches) or higher (around 48 inches) can be a good option, depending on the available space.
