Are Bar Cabinets Good for Storing Wine?
Bar cabinets can be used for temporary storage of wines that are about to be enjoyed, but they are not good for storing precious wines that need to be kept for long periods or that require special storage conditions.
Wine storage requires a certain level of humidity (ideally 55% to 75%) and a constant temperature (between 45 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit) to keep the cork moist, ensure a tight seal, and prevent oxygen from entering the bottle. Ordinary bar cabinets are difficult to maintain in these conditions, especially in environments such as kitchens or dining rooms where temperature and humidity fluctuate.
If you want to keep your wine for a long period, it is recommended to use a specialized wine cellar or a temperature-controlled wine cabinet, which are designed for the long-term preservation of wine and provide a stable, cool environment.
How to Organise Bar Cabinets?
To keep your bar cabinet both tidy and easy to use, follow these steps to get organized:
Sort and Organise
- Begin by removing all bottles from the cabinet and sorting them by type of liquor such as vodka, tequila, gin, etc.
- Designate specific areas of the cabinet for each category to ensure that similar items are stored centrally.
Create a Liquor Inventory
- Prepare an exhaustive list of liquors, listing the brand and flavor of each.
- Sort the list by wine category and post it on the inside of the cabinet for easy viewing and updating of inventory.
Optimise Bottle Placement
- Place frequently used wine bottles in an easy-to-reach area, such as the front or middle of the cabinet.
- Lesser-used or holiday-specific bottles are placed at the back or on higher, harder-to-reach shelves.
- Space bottles according to their height to ensure that each bottle is easy to place and easy to reach.
Keep Bartending Tools in One Place
- Store bartending tools such as stirring spoons, mixers, and strainers in one place, preferably in an easily accessible drawer or basket.
- Make sure these tools are close to liquors that are used frequently for quick bartending.
Storage of Wine Glasses and Glassware
- Store different types of wine glasses (e.g. martini glasses, goblets, etc.) separately to avoid confusion.
- Use the underside of the bar or specialized hangers to store wine glasses to ensure they are not easily knocked or broken.
Maintenance and Cleaning
- Regularly check and clean your wine cabinet to ensure that bottles and glasses are protected from dust and stains.
- Keep it clean and hygienic by wiping each bottle with a damp cloth before putting it back.
What is the Ideal Bar Cabinet Height?
With standard kitchen countertop heights ranging from 35 to 40 inches and standard bar stool heights of 30 inches, choosing a bar cabinet that is 41 to 43 inches high will meet most people's needs for functionality and comfort.
How Long Does Liquor Last in the Liquor Cabinet?
Unopened liquors can theoretically last indefinitely if stored in a cool place protected from light. Opened base wines, if stored properly, lose their flavour and aroma gradually over 6 months to 2 years. The shelf life of unopened liquors varies, while opened liquors, when stored properly, retain their quality for about one to two years, during which time the flavour and colour will fade.
