Is it OK to store in an under-stairs cupboard? Want to get a couple of cases and keep for a year or two, but this is the only space in my (very small!) house I can think of. This is the most central part of the house and is surrounded on all sides, which keeps temperatures far more stable than anywhere else but it's not as controlled an environment as I would like of course.
The only other option is in the lounge, in the alcove between the chimney and the - wall internal walls both side. This is fairly shady, and the bottle would be sheltered by the body of the rack although the neck would be exposed to daylight. It would be nicer here (and give me an excuse to throw away all the wife's stupid VHS tapes that she refuses to bin) although there would be some light like I say.

A wine cabinet is a useful (if dangerous) thing to have since you can keep large quantities of white/rosé wine at perfect drinking temperature.
The upper part is also handy for ripening cheese where you want this cool, but not fridge temperature. I kept cigars in it as well.
I miss it now that I no longer have it - nowhere to put it in the current house.

Do cigars benefit from the cool then?The upper part is also handy for ripening cheese where you want this cool, but not fridge temperature. I kept cigars in it as well.
