Funky & Functional - Modern Wine Racks!

Written by Ian Robertson on 20th April 2008

Ok, now for something completely different...in wine racks anyway.

Moving away from the same old traditional racking systems, the newly Australian designed “wino” with the unique collar system called “winocol”, suspends the wine bottles from the neck rather than the body. This way you can simply read the labels of the bottles whilst protecting your labels from scratching where traditional wine racks fail. The slight elevation of the bottles ensures the wine rests against the cork reducing the risk of oxidation, saving your precious wine!!

Due to the unique design of the poly carbonate “winocol” no more uninspiring dusting is required, as the “wino” rack eliminates the old racking system that collects levels of dust.

“There lies several benefits!!!” Visual and preservation benefits, and “dusting” benefits that is certainly worth noting.”

“Lets say,… wine meets a modern invention!!”

The “wino” colours are fresh and modern, and are named after flavors, which tempted your dessert palate, such as chocolate, strawberry, mint and lemonade. The “wino” rack holds 28 bottles (not sparkling) and is a compact piece of modern and colourful furniture, which particularly suits apartment or high-rise living. Place a low powered light near the “wino” rack, and watch it glow!

Certainly modern, stylish and something completely different!!
