PRODUCT OVERVIEW

With a triple glazed UV resistant door, anti-vibration technology and winter system as standard in the premium edition range, this wine cooler will protect your wine through daily and seasonal fluctuations in warm or cool climates. The Swisscave WLB-460DFL-MIX comes with a range of handles, or without a handle, to offer a perfectly centred symmetry for your kitchen, restaurant or bar and can be used as a freestanding or built-in wine cooler.

This wine fridge has an active carbon filter for longer term storage possibilities plus a lock on the door and an audible alarm if the temperature fluctuates meaning your wine collection is well protected. The anti-vibration shelves also ensure against any sediment disturbance. The "winter heating" function also protects against any dips in temperature in the room housing the wine cooler like a garage or conservatory for example.

Efficient and quiet thanks to the quality parts that Swisscave employ in all their units, this is simply one of the very best wine cabinets on the market and a real favourite among our customers.

IS SWISSCAVE A GOOD BRAND?

Based in the town of Pfäffikon, around 30km south east of Zurich, Swisscave have been manufacturing premium wine fridges for over a decade and have a growing reputation amongst fine wine collectors for wine storage and maturation.

Now with five years full warranty on their premium and kitchen edition range, the Swisscave range boast high build quality, good energy efficiency and quiet running.

The easy sliding, durable shelving is a key feature at Swisscave with their premium edition fridges boasting MIX shelving allowing a good range of bottle varieties to nestle on the shelves. All the Swisscave wine fridges come with carbon filters as these are not only wine fridges but also operate as maturing fridges and most come with winter systems, even the undercounter models.

As a direct UK partner of Swisscave, purchasing your wine fridge with CoolerSomm ensures the latest models, boxed, directly from the manufacturer. The Swisscave brand is on display at our Wandsworth wine fridge store.

THE WLB SERIES - PREMIUM EDITION

Swisscave wine fridges come in classic and premium edition models. There's a price gap between the two versions so what's the difference between the two?

  • Option to select and change white/blue/amber lighting up and down the side walls of the fridge so all bottles are highlighted.
  • Quieter and more energy efficient than the classic edition, saving money over the longer term with an embraco compressor fitted.
  • Premium edition fridges feature filigree precious black stainless steel frame rim with a lock and key.
  • Five year warranty on the premium edition Swisscave wine fridges.

PROS AND CONS - COOLERSOMM'S OPINION

A truly premium product, the Swisscave WLB-460DFL looks fantastic thanks to the mahogany wood shelves and adjustable lighting and is jam packed with features that you need for long term wine storage OR wine service. Indeed, Swisscave is the brand we choose at CoolerSomm for our own wine bars and our sommeliers love the easy sliding shelving for quick and easy access.

Swisscaves hold temperature really accurately and can cope with the door being opened hundreds of times a day without condensation build up or losing temperature. Equipped with winter system, smart LED lighting, sturdy, quality telescopic shelving the Swisscave range are one of the few wine fridges that are as good at storage as they are at service.

    How many bottles will the SWISSCAVE WLB-460DFL-MIX hold?

    The MIX shelving can accommodate up to 164 bottles of wine with partial shelf removal and 152 without. The shelving alternates between shelves designed to accommodate Bordeaux and those designed to accommodate wider bottles like Burgundy or Champagne. You may put any bottles on any shelves, however for the optimum 152 capacity we recommend stacking the correct shaped bottles on the right shelves.

    The top and bottom shelves can be used to store larger bottle formats.

    The best way to optimise space in your wine fridge is to stack the same bottle type (Bordeaux or Burgundy or Alsace for example) on the same shelves.

    What is the energy rating of this wine cooler?

    Pre March 2021 this wine fridge had an energy efficiency rating of "A" but with the changes to the efficiency scale this wine fridge now ranks "G". For more information on these latest energy rating changes to all electrical appliances please see our blog post on energy rating changes for wine coolers .

    How do I install this wine cooler?

    The WLB-460DFL-MIX is a front venting wine fridge which means it can be used as either a freestanding wine cooler or have shelving around its sides as an undercounter wine fridge and fit neatly into your kitchen or restaurant design.

    If you wish to build shelving or cabinets around your wine cooler it is always best to leave a small gap of at least 1cm to the rear of the unit. You will also need to consider that all SWISSCAVE units have a top panel that protrudes around 1.5cms.
