Our Wine Cellar Refrigeration Systems: How Our Experts Created a Classy Wine Cellar for a Famous Tennis Player
A former professional tennis player embarked on a personal project to convert a section of his residence into a stunning wine cellar, designed to safeguard and showcase his prized wine collection. Among his treasured bottles are rare vintages such as the Chateau Lafite (1986) and Chateau Haut-Brion (1982). The former South African professional tennis player Raymond Moore is not only passionate about the sport, but also about collecting the finest vintages. Arctic Metalworks recently completed a wine cellar installation project for Ray Moore tennis player in Shady Canyon, Irvine, California. The entire custom wine room, including the wine racking and refrigeration systems, was designed and built by the Arctic team.
To realize this vision, the client sought the help of Arctic Metalworks, a trusted wine cellar builder and HVAC specialist in California. Our team worked closely with the house builder to ensure meticulous attention to detail. We meticulously addressed requirements for room insulation, added a vapor barrier, curated appropriate lighting, and meticulously selected the ideal flooring for this bespoke wine cellar project.
Properly constructed custom wine cellars provide the best storage environments when equipped with high-grade wine cellar refrigeration systems, wherein wines can age to their full potential. The right combination of wine rack styles will create the ideal storage system, within which collectors can efficiently organize and elegantly display their finest and rare wine collectibles.
Features of the Custom Home Wine Cellar in Irvine, California
This highly customized residential wine cellar for Ray Moore tennis player measures 8’ x 12’ and has a total storage capacity of over 1,000 wine bottles. To ensure that every crucial detail concerning insulation, vapor barrier, lighting, and flooring was properly addressed, Arctic Metalworks worked closely with the general contractor, who constructed the house.
A wine racking system is an important component of cellaring wines. Custom wine racks are purpose built to orient bottles horizontally and thereby assure that the cork maintains contact with the wine. Keeping the cork moist allows it to remain expanded and ensures a tight seal.
Custom Wine Racking System
For this custom wine cellars Shady Canyon project, Arctic Metalworks custom built the wine racking system in unfinished black walnut wood, which gives the racking solutions a pale appearance. Adding a stain and lacquer finish is possible, provided the wood product does not leave a faint, mild odor. In this case, the client opted for the unfinished look.
Ray Moore tennis player has an impressive collection of rare bottles in his wine arsenal, including a 1982 Chateau Haut-Brion and a 1986 Chateau Lafite. Customized drawers with individual bottle cradles were specially designed and built by the Arctic team to accommodate the rarest and most valuable wine bottles, for tucking them away in private and shielding them against harmful light sources.
