Description
The La Sommelière SMART52DZ is a compact, high-performance dual-zone wine fridge designed to store up to 52 bottles, making it an excellent choice for homes where space is limited. Its two independent temperature zones provide optimal conditions for different wine styles, with the upper compartment adjustable from 5–12°C for white and rosé wines, and the lower compartment from 12–20°C for reds. This versatile setup ensures every bottle is kept and served at its ideal temperature. For added convenience, the cooler features Wi-Fi connectivity and is compatible with the Vinotag® app, allowing you to adjust the temperature and choose from three interior lighting modes directly from your smartphone.
Designed with both style and practicality in mind, the SMART52DZ includes a double-glazed UV-protected glass door to shield wines from harmful light, while the reversible door offers flexible options for placement. Removable wooden shelves provide secure, vibration-absorbing storage, helping to preserve wine quality while making it easy to organise your collection. An active charcoal filter keeps the interior air fresh, while the anti-vibration system, temperature, door, filter and Wi-Fi alarms, and child lock provide added protection and peace of mind. Operating at just 36 dB, this freestanding wine fridge delivers quiet, efficient performance with a sleek, modern finish.

COMPACT, ATTRACTIVE HOME WINE STORAGE
An attractive dual zone wine fridge with a narrow width, ideal for slotting in around the home (but not undercounter). Using the latest wine cooling technology, this wine fridge is both quiet and energy efficient and jam packed with tech that usually resides in wine fridges that are twice the price including smart connectivity and a carbon filter.
The La Sommeliere range is manufactured in Europe and there are a team of UK technicians to support your wine cooler should you need assistance. This product comes with a free 3 year warranty for parts, labour and on-site support.
The SMART52DZ is adaptable to your home with adjustable feet and a reversible door.
The dual temperature zones can be adjusted between 5-20°C. Combined with stable temperature control, the active carbon filter helps create suitable conditions for long-term wine storage.
**The SMART52DZ is supplied with an EU plug and adaptor.
PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION
The SMART52DZ is our pick for the most technology packed wine fridge at the sub £750 price range. This adaptable and versatile wine fridge can even be used for long term wine storage thanks to its carbon filter and unlike most small freestanding fridges, the door can be reversed too. Perfect for serving temperature or storage of Bordeaux, Burgundy or Champagne bottles.
A significant upgrade on the LS512Z.BLACK, this wine fridge was released in the UK in August 2026 and represents excellent value for money considering the quality of the product. Smart connected, energy efficient and very quiet, this is a significant upgrade and stand out unit in this price range.
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 ECS51.2Z.
