The 6 Best Tall Wine Refrigerators As Of January, 2020 (And 15 Other Models)

For serious wine collectors, tall wine fridges are probably the most elegant way to class-up your kitchen. These freestanding (some are also built-in) towering coolers store nearly twice as much bottles as under-counter models, and usually have one or two inclined shelves to display the bottles that make your pride.

The wine coolers shown here have a capacity that ranges from 70 (tall but slim models) to up to 440 bottles, with some offering two temperature zones for different wine types. While large wine fridges are freestanding due to size, some enable built-in use if you want to fill that cozy corner in your kitchen. Typically, they use either stainless steel or hardwood (or a mix of both) to pull off that cabinet-style finish - with some offering dual French or top-down double doors.

We gathered models that usually sport a couple of presentation features (inclined shelves, LED interior light, etc.) that seem to complement their height of at least 50 inches.
