Wine Cellars
Summit offers over 100 models of wine cellars ranging in capacity from 7 to over 170 bottles for both home and commercial use but selecting the correct one for you may be easier than it seems.
It’s a good idea to start your search by narrowing down the selection by bottle capacity, our most popular models for home use store between 28 and 50 bottles.
The next thing to consider is how many temperature zones a unit has: red and white wines are stored at different temperatures, so if you will be storing both types make sure to get a dual zone unit, of which Summit offers about 40 models.
Next, will your unit be freestanding or built in? Most Summit cellars can be built in but it’s best to verify before you buy.
The above 3 questions should narrow down your search to a few dozen units. The final things to consider are: the exact shape and size of the unit, features such as doors and shelves, and of course - the price.
Below we highlight a few unique and popular models by Summit to help you select the correct wine cellar for your needs.
1. SWC007 - The Super Slim
At only 6” wide this wine cellar will allow you to use the undercounter space that you thought was too small to be usable. This unit fits only 7 bottles but has the temperature range for both red and white wines.
2. SWC182Z - Summit’s Classic Undercounter Cellar
One of our most popular cellars, this is a dual zone unit that holds 28 bottles being only 18” wide, a perfect fit for typical home needs. Can be used both as built in and freestanding this cellar features 4 wooden shelves.
3. SWBC3041 - A Combination of Beer and Wine

6. VC28S - Above Counter Built In Wall Cellar

7. SWC1926CSS - A Freestanding Cellar For 171 Bottles
Though Summit specializes mostly in undercounter cellars they have great options when it comes to full size freestanding units. This unit is their highest capacity at 70” high and 24” wide. This particular model has a single temperature zone but they do offer 2 zones within the same product family which reduces the capacity down to 160 bottles.
