In the Material section,maybe add one thing in it:polish or natural.
Right?
Polished as general furniture can make the rack stand there for more time.

@Gregory You raise a great point actually. Wine should definitely be protected from excess sunlight which can cause temperature variations. I’m sorry if our glamour shot was confusing, we were trying to put the rack in the best “light”, not to suggest that wines should be stored under sunlight!

I live in a condo so needed a wine rack that wouldn’t take alot of space but large enough to hold+
my current “collection” and to fit in a particular space. I ran across a wire wine rack at C&B which fit the need. Unfortunately, the purchase a rack that holds double the number of bottles you currently have advice came too late as my three case wine rack is dwarfed by the dozen plus cases I have stashed around the condo.

You have left out where you are planning to place the wine rack. Your pretty picture shows a lovely window and lots of natural sunlight – a real enemy of proper aging due to both heat and light degradation. Having learned the lesson of looking good in the well-lit corner; a whole bunch of bottle prematurely becoming “past” their time of drinkability, I strongly suggest the sunlight and temperature issues be dealt with up front. Only then will the other three points be successsfully dealt with.
