Bronze mirrored tasting alcove is the focal point in this wine cellar
that also features a lighted display row to show off labels. According
to Kathleen Valentini, wine cellar designer and owner of Valentini's,
some stone walls (in large cellars) along with heavily textured walls...give
the sense of being underground.

| HOW TO START A WINE CELLAR - "Unlike the classic homes of Europe,
typical American homes do not come complete with a wine cellar. In fact,
most homes don't even have those wine-friendly dark, cool and humid basements." (A
passive cellar w/o climate control is not ever suggested for U.S. cellars.)
An "active" cellar with proper climate controll systems are
critical.

| "Kathleen Valentini
Bonner designed and built a 'one stop design and build shop' for those
who are serious abut their wine storage. Bonner has a long history of
designing and constructing high quality cellars for 600 to 6,000 bottles."
"Showroom
designed by Kathleen adds a touch of Tuscany with faux stone arches,
wine tasting or work table for floor plans and a 2,000 bottle cellar
displaying various design components. This showroom featured beautiful
wine lockers for rent for her customers."
