WHO IS THE SLS32DZBLACK BEST FOR?

• Tight spaces where depth is the problem. At 43cm deep it sits against a wall without jutting out the way most wine fridges do, so it works in hallways, alcoves and narrow rooms.
• Serving red, white and fizz together. Two zones, 5-12°C above and 12-18°C below, with room for Champagne on the top shelves.
• Open plan rooms. At 36dB it is one of the quietest fridges in its class, so it can live in a kitchen, living or dining room without being heard.
• A first wine fridge that still looks good. Black cabinet, integrated side handle and the controls mounted outside the unit for clean lines on display.
• Bottles you reach for rather than lay down. Designed for service, so wine is ready to pour rather than sitting at one cellar temperature.

COMMON QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SLS32DZBLACK

Is this a shallow depth wine fridge?

Yes. At 43cm deep it is considerably shallower than a standard wine fridge, which typically runs to around 57cm. That makes it a good fit where a normal unit would stick out awkwardly, such as a hallway, a narrow galley or against a wall in a living room. Browse the rest of our shallow depth wine fridges.

Can it hold red and white at the same time?

Yes, that is what the two zones are for. The upper zone runs between 5 and 12°C for whites, rosé and sparkling, while the lower runs between 12 and 18°C for reds. Both are serving temperatures rather than long term storage temperatures. Compare more dual zone wine coolers.

Will Champagne bottles fit?

Yes. There is space on the upper shelves for larger formats including Champagne and magnums. As with any wine fridge, filling it with wide based bottles will bring the capacity below the headline 32.

Is it quiet enough for a living room?

At 36dB it is about as quiet as a compressor wine fridge gets, roughly the level of a whispered conversation. The 2025 upgrade made it quieter again. See our full range of quiet wine fridges if noise is your main concern.

Can it go under a worktop?

No. This is a freestanding fridge that needs a couple of inches of clearance around it for ventilation, so it should not be built into cabinetry or enclosed under a counter. If you need an undercounter unit, browse our undercounter wine fridges instead.

Does the door lock?

No, the SLS32DZBLACK does not have a lock and key. If you want bottles physically secured, the La Sommeliere ECS range does lock, and the ECS31.2Z linked below is the closest equivalent. See all lockable wine fridges.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION

The SLS32DZBLACK is our pick for the best dual zone wine fridge on the market under £600. With two temperature zones, space for Champagne, sliding wooden shelves, energy efficient and very quiet at just 36dB, this wine fridge from top brand La Sommeliere looks fantastic and will keep your wine at the perfect temperature.

Aesthetically attractive and upgraded in 2025 to be even quieter and energy efficient, this wine cellar is efficient to run as well as economical to buy. A key benefit of this wine fridge is the control panel being outside the fridge and the integrated side handle giving sleek lines for display around the home.

As for drawbacks, there's little to say, the unit doesn't have a lock and key unlike the La Sommeliere ECS range, so if that's important to you, look into the La Sommeliere ECS31.2Z.
