Description
The Avintage GALLERY is the jewel in the Avintage brand crown and new for 2024. This wine fridge is jam packed with features including two compressors, two carbon filters, a reversible door, VINOTAG compatibility and a handle less door as well as being very energy efficient and quiet for such a large, dual zone fridge.
Ideal as a freestanding unit or a built in wine fridge (width 655mm), the Avintage has cool white, warm white and amber lighting with adjustable brightness and label facing, telescopic shelves which look smart and modern within a designer kitchen or restaurant setting. These robust and reliable fridges are suitable for home or commercial use.
For the wine lover, the ability to store Champagne, Bordeaux, Rhone, Alsace or Burgundy shaped bottles on any shelf is a real plus so are the two carbon filters to enable longer term storage. Another standout feature is that either temperature zone can be programmed between 5°C-20°C (although a gap of at least 4°C should be maintained between zones). The vinotag app allows for the changing of temperature or lighting remotely.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Freestanding or Built-In Wine Cabinet: The GALLERY
The GALLERY is a sophisticated dual-temperature zone wine cabinet designed for both freestanding and built-in installation. This versatility allows it to either stand independently or be seamlessly integrated into custom cabinetry, making it a striking feature for kitchens, bars, or restaurants. It is suitable for both residential and commercial environments. The winter system allows installation in a colder room like a garage or cellar.
Kitchen - Built-In Design
The GALLERY offers a robust capacity of up to 131 Bordeaux bottles, stored on 11 telescopic, label-view wire shelves. Its design ensures easy access and optimal storage for a variety of wine bottle shapes. The intensity of the white LED lighting can be customised to three distinct color temperatures—Cool White, Warm White, and Amber—each offering four intensity levels (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%) to suit your desired environment. Additionally, the unit is equipped with four adjustable feet (6.5 cm height), ensuring stability and flexibility in installation.
With an operating temperature range of 5-20°C, the GALLERY is perfectly suited for the long-term storage and service of both red and white wines across two distinct temperature zones. The dual cooler functionality ensures precise control, preserving the quality of your collection.
The GALLERY features a handleless door design, with the added benefit of reversible door installation for increased flexibility in placement.
Multi-Bottle Storage
The GALLERY’s shelves are designed for maximum versatility, accommodating Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne bottles. The sliding, telescopic metal shelves facilitate easy access to your collection, while the horizontal, label-view storage configuration ensures that every bottle is readily visible and accessible.
Optimal Storage Conditions
The GALLERY excels as a long-term wine storage solution, offering substantial capacity without the need for stacked bottles—eliminating the common frustration of searching for a specific bottle. This cabinet is equipped with two charcoal filters (one for each zone) and features active humidity management, maintaining a range of 55-85% to ensure optimal preservation. Automatic regulation of humidity levels prevents corks from drying out, preserving the integrity of your collection.
The door is fitted with fully UV-treated low-E glass, providing both aesthetic appeal and protection against UV damage. The thick insulation ensures efficient temperature regulation and minimises noise, offering a reliable and discreet storage environment for your wine collection.
The Avintage GALLERY can be installed as a built-in wine fridge or freestanding wine fridge. With a winter system this wine fridge can be installed even in colder rooms thanks to the winter system. If installing into an integrated space be mindful of the dimensions before ordering - please find an installation guide.
At 38 decibels and with a former A energy rating, this is a quiet and energy efficient wine fridge at this price point.
