FAQ
The ideal angle to store wine is horizontally at 45 degrees, so it’s best if wine racks are tilted. When the cork is moist, it ensures wine doesn’t absorb oxygen, making it stay fresher for longer. Wine racks don’t have to be tilted, but it is suggested to store them at a horizontal angle versus vertically. Here’s more on how to store wine at home.
How deep should a wine rack be?
Wine racks only need to be deep enough to hold all your best bottles! The average depth is around 14.5-inches.
What to put on a wine rack besides wine?
Some of the best wine racks include storage for glasses or tools like wine openers. If it has exposed elements like a wooden top or shelves, decorate it with vino-themed art, glasses and wine accessories.
