Commercial Wine Cellars Increase Profits

Welcome to the world of the Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club, where the wine flows as freely as the cash! In a move that screams ‘We’ve got more class than a sommelier convention,’ this Orange County hotspot has just upped its game with a commercial wine cellar that could make Dionysus himself green with envy. Gone are the days of stuffing your finest bottles in a dark, dusty corner. Now, it’s all about showing off your wine collection like it’s the latest fashion trend.

Crafted by the wizards at Bella Vita  Wine Cellars, this isn’t just a place to store wine; it’s a glass-encased, metal-racked, climate-controlled shrine to the grape. With enough space to house 1,380 bottles, it’s the perfect spot to play ‘eenie, meenie, miney, moe’ with your wine selection. Because, let’s be honest, the only problem we want to have is deciding which wine to uncork next. So, grab a glass, and let’s toast to this temple of tannins and terroir!

Commercial Wine Cellars – The Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club Orange County Project

The addition of a sophisticated wine enclave to a commercial establishment will not only enhance the aesthetic quality of the space but will also drive revenues and ultimately profits for the business.  Of course, it will provide the right conditions for storing and showcasing the club’s wine selections.

A well-designed and constructed wine cellar display will not only provide the maximum wine storage capacity but will also make the selection and identification of wines much easier. Perhaps more importantly the real benefit of commercial wine cellars is that they will aid in the promotion of certain wines.

The Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club in Orange County Commercial Custom Wine Cellars Project

Coastal Custom Wine Cellars recently finished installing a commercial wine cellar in one of Southern California’s finest country clubs.  The project involved creating a climate-controlled wine storage space that can hold a total of 1,380 bottles.

The Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club wine cellar measures 11’ wide, 2’ deep, and 9’ tall, and features seamless ½” tempered glass walls, as well as floor-to-ceiling metal wine racking.

The Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club is a private 36-hole country club located in Orange County, California.  The country club has a 44,000-square-foot clubhouse that can host wedding receptions, business meetings, and other private events.  The club recently added a spa and sports club building that houses a fitness center and a full-service spa.

What are the Design Features of the Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club Commercial Wine Cellar?

The Wine Rack Display

The wine rack displays in commercial custom wine cellars are an important component of cellaring wines.  They are designed to provide space for storing, organizing, and displaying wine collections.  Vintage View metal wine racks are the racking of choice for the Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club wine enclosure project.

This metal wine rack display creates a stunning showcase of different wine labels, and at the same time complements any contemporary-themed interior.

Vintage View metal wine racks are designed to facilitate a label-forward orientation of wine bottles.  This feature promotes ease of product recognition, allowing for quick perusal and selection of wine labels.

In addition, a horizontal placement of bottles helps secure the cork’s sealing quality, by maintaining constant contact with the wine.

The wine rack display design for the clubhouse consists of a label forward horizontal display, in a three-deep configuration.  Triple-depth wine racks can accommodate three bottles laterally, increasing the total bottle capacity of the wine enclosure.  A presentation row that runs the length of the wine racking system provides a slightly tilted area, where the finest wine bottles are put on display.

Tempered Glass Panels in Commercial Wine Cellars

The Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club commercial wine cellar is enclosed in seamless 1/2″ tempered glass panels, providing a striking view of the wine storage room’s interior from different angles.  Tempered glass is ideal for all kinds of applications since the material is built with safety and strength in mind.  This glass minimizes the risk of injury because it is designed to shatter into circular pebbles rather than jagged shards.

One can access the different wine bottles through three sets of glass doors.  Commercial-duty pivot hinges with self-closing features are used to mount the heavy doors.

Wine Cellar Cooling Systems Designed For Commercial Custom Wine Cellars

For the Coto de Caza Golf and Racquet Club wine cellar project, Coastal Custom Wine Cellars installed a wine cellar cooling system that was designed and manufactured by Wine Guardian, out of New York.

The model D088 is a self-contained, fully-ducted air handler system, that can efficiently cool an area from 1,500 to 6,000 cubic feet.

The proper wine storage temperature for optimum aging is between 50°F and 59°F, with humidity levels kept within 50% to 60%.  A wine cellar cooling system is designed to help maintain constant temperature and humidity levels, allowing wines to age to their full potential.

A heat load calculation is usually conducted to determine the right cooling unit for a particular wine enclave.

This climate control system can be located in any indoor area outside the wine room and can be ducted 25 feet away from the enclosure.

This setup results in an ultra-quiet wine storage environment without any visible equipment in the cellar.

For this particular wine cellar project, the cooling unit is mounted inside the ceiling.  Ductwork is used to supply cold air to and from the enclosure and exhaust hot air to the outdoors.
