PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Millésime wine cellars are equipped with LED side lighting on both sides, providing a modern and elegant way to showcase each bottle. This lighting enhances the visibility of your collection, allowing you to admire it fully. The cellars also feature sliding shelves made from rot-resistant solid sapele wood, designed to hold bottles either upside down or with the labels facing forward for easy viewing.
Shelving:
The sliding shelves feature a safety mechanism that prevents them from sliding or tipping over. The Sapelli shelves are well-known for their ability to absorb vibrations, which significantly enhances wine preservation by reducing the risk of turbidity. Moreover, they facilitate consistent airflow, ensuring efficient ventilation and maintaining a stable temperature throughout the entire cellar.
Additional lateral, standard and display shelves can be purchased and added to this wine fridge.
Hygrometry:
Keeping a stable humidity level is essential for optimal wine aging, as it prevents corks from drying out, which can adversely affect the wine's quality. The ideal humidity range is between 50% and 80%.
Quiet and controlled cooling system:
The wine fridge, equipped with a powerful compressor and a stirred cooling system, ensures a consistently maintained temperature and prevents temperature shifts that could compromise the flavour of your wine. Its stable humidity controls protect corks and prevent wine from oxidising. Additionally, the cabinet runs quietly at only 37 decibels, providing ideal conditions for preserving your collection.
Enhanced security:
Visual and audible alarms are available directly on the cellar when needed, and can be programmed remotely and in real time via the Vinotag app.
Secure aging:
The MILLESIME240DB wine fridge boasts sophisticated features, including a triple-glazed, low-e glass door that offers outstanding insulation and a reliable lock. It can be accessed through a smartphone or tablet, enabling remote control and notifications for temperature fluctuations, filter replacements, and open doors. An anti-vibration system ensures that bottles remain stable, while the triple-glazed grey glass door with an integrated UV filter shields your wine from harmful rays. Furthermore, a child safety system protects the control panel for enhanced security.
Temperature control:
This wine fridge is designed for easy and convenient use. It features electronic controls and an LCD thermometer, as well as the Vinotag app for remote, real-time monitoring of its contents. The app also helps you organize bottles for optimal arrangement and temperature balance within the unit.
Premium equipment:
Enhance your collection with the integrated LED side lighting of this wine cabinet, providing a contemporary and refined aesthetic for your wine cellar. Each bottle is beautifully showcased for an elegant presentation, allowing for precise observation of every detail.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION
The MILLESIME240DB from Climadiff offers a large capacity for sub £2000 together with a premium and trusted brand name. This model suits those with a large number of wines to mature (or even for service with two zones) over the long term and can be placed in the home, garage or outbuildings thanks to the winter system. Fine wines are the focus of this cellar with a charcoal filter for air purity and tightly held temperature zones plus, very rare in a wine fridge at this price, Sapele/Mahogany shelving which is the best material to dampen vibration - great for wine maturation.
Aesthetically attractive and upgraded in 2024 to be even quieter at 38dB and energy efficient too, this wine cellar is efficient to run as well as economical to buy. Additional shelves can be purchased.
A drawback of this model is that the door can't be reversed.
