About The Site

Welcome to basement-wine-cellar.com, my website that describes how and why I built a wine cellar in my basement.

This is not a commercial web site.  I’m not selling anything.  I am not a wine merchant.  I don’t build wine cellars.  I have no vested interest in whether or not you buy wine or build a wine cellar.

When I decided to build a wine cellar, I did a lot of research.  I read books; I searched the web; I talked to people.  I received conflicting information, so I had to sort through it all and decide what to do.  The results of that research, and my own experience, are contained in this web site.

This web site tells you what I did, why I did it, and whether or not it was successful.  Whether or not it will work for you is up to you, but with this site you can at least get some real world experience.

Good luck on your wine cellar quest!
