PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The AV306A+ is an efficient and great looking wine cabinet but it also contains some of the best wine cooling technology that will protect your wine and is perfect for long term storage and ageing. The solid door puts your collection in complete darkness and away from harmful UV rays. The humidity control keeps your wines within the safe 55-85% range which means labels do not dry out and mold doesn't develop. The temperature can be set between 5-18°C which can store any kind of wine perfectly and the cabinet also comes with a lock so no one can break into your wine cabinet.
The anti-vibration technology holds your wines totally still so no molecules become excited by vibration and the sediment remains still. The charcoal filters ensure no bad odours can develop in the cabinet and the winter system ensures that, even if the ambient temperature dips, your wines remain at a stable temperature. All these failsafes ensure your wine collection matures safely.
With the 294 bottle capacity, you have lots of room for irregular shapes bottles like Champagne, magnums, jeroboams or bottles of Travaglini's Gattinara! For the full capacity, stack Bordeaux style bottles on the three premium shelves that are supplied with the unit, there's also one fixed collector shelf and one sliding shelf to allow quick and easy access to your favourite wines.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION
This Avintage wine fridge offers one of the largest capacities, holding up to 294 bottles, including ample space for magnums and even jeroboams. The solid door ensures your wine is kept in complete darkness ensuring no UV light damage to the wine or labels, the handy register on the door is also a neat feature.
The only negative of this long term wine fridge for maturation would be that it does require a lot of stacking though additional shelves can be bought.
