Storage and temperature control
The two independently adjustable temperature zones are the main practical advantage, allowing different wine styles to be stored under separate conditions. The stated 5–20°C range provides flexibility for everyday wine storage.
Capacity is rated at up to 29 bottles within 79 litres. The corrugated base and removable wooden racks are designed to accommodate bottles with different shapes and diameters, including Bordeaux and champagne styles.
Protection and presentation
UV-resistant Eclipse glass helps limit exposure to light, while the low-vibration compressor is intended to reduce disturbance to bottles. An activated charcoal filter supports air-quality management inside the cabinet.
Internal LED lighting and telescopic shelf guides improve visibility and access. The black Dolce Stil Novo finish, copper detailing and push-pull opening system give the appliance a particularly design-led feel for an integrated kitchen installation.
Controls and everyday use
Touch controls provide a straightforward way to manage temperature and interior lighting. Telescopic guides allow shelves to be pulled forward, making bottles easier to identify and retrieve.
The available product information does not provide installation dimensions, energy-rating details or noise figures, so those points should be checked before purchase if cabinet fit or running characteristics are important.
