Tip! Light Bodied vs Full Bodied: To get a picture of the differences between a light-bodied wine and a full-bodied wine think about milk as an analogy. Light-bodied is analogous to skim milk and full-bodied wine analogous to full-cream milk, and the variations in the ‘body’ of wne are like varying levels of fat-content in milk.

Hanging wall racks make use of available space. Many of us have overhead wall space in our kitchen that is either filled with an eclectic hodgepodge of dust collectors, or left bare. This space could be better utilized by many, with a hanging wine rack.

Hanging wine racks come in a vast selection of sizes and styles. Typically, a matrix or boxed style functions well in the kitchen. These wine racks are mounted to the wall or are hung on supports. Each individual bottle is generally enclosed in its own box or space. By having separate compartments, the bottles remain in pristine condition, the labels are not damaged by rubbing or scrapping against other bottles and breakage is kept to the bottle you are handling.

Tip! Low Tannins vs High Tannins: Tannins are a vital ingredient in wines, especially red wines. It comes from the stalks, skins and pips of grapes.

On the opposite direction of hanging wine racks, wine floor display racks are also a great way to store and show your favorite bottles. Every wine connoisseur has a few favorites, be it the one from your wedding, or the one your grandfather gave you at graduation. What better way to display these special bottles than in a wine floor display rack.

True to their name, wine floor display racks sit on the floor. They can be either metal or wood in construction and either decorative or functional. It is important when selecting a wine floor display rack to ascertain the area the wine rack will be used. If the wine floor display rack is going to be in a public area, then a decorative wine floor rack should be your choice. If you are looking to store and display your bottles in a discrete area, like a pantry or cellar, a less expensive, more substantial wine floor rack might be your choice.

Tip! Low Acid vs High Acid: Acids of various types are present in wine, and are essential to the wine’s longevity and also to your enjoyment. Too little can affect the wine’s quality and too much can spoil the wine.

Hanging wall racks and wine floor display racks are a great way to properly store and display your wine collection. Both of these wine racks use space that is generally neglected or filled with unnecessary dust collectors. Use your space wisely and to its fullest potential. Buy a hanging wall rack or wine floor display rack and show your style!

Tip! Decide beforehand if you will do wine tasting or not.
