"In the future, it is no longer a private swimming pool or a private gym, but a private wine cellar." Forbes magazine reviews private wine cellars.
Patrice Cuya, a French sommelier, put it more bluntly: "In the circle of rich people in Europe, thousands of people who hide wine are much more proud than those who have three Ferraris at home."
It can be seen that private wine cellar has gradually become a low-key but most convincing existence that shows wealth and taste.
People who love wine will dream of owning a private wine cellar.
That's your exclusive wine world: whether it's drinking alone, chatting with three or five confidants, or holding a tipsy party, it's a great pleasure in life;
It is a "private territory" that highlights taste and identity. Whether it is a warm family dinner or a business negotiation, it can be easily done;
That's your "wine hiding room": in a perfect storage environment, you can happily wait for the wine to appreciate with age.
Today, we will teach you how to build your own private wine cellar!
Several principles of building private wine cellar
Some people say, "It's just a private wine cellar. I have one at home. Look! "
To be honest, this is not a wine cellar at all. Many families in China will set up such "wine display cabinets". However, it is easy to greatly reduce the quality of wine when stored at room temperature and exposed to sunlight.
What principles should we follow in order to provide a perfect "living environment" for our favorite wines?
Adequate storage space and good ventilation.
Constant temperature and humidity, temperature 12~ 16, humidity 75~80%.
Isolated from natural light, shockproof and noise interference.

How to build a private wine cellar
After understanding the basic principles of wine cellar construction, we can divide the wine cellar construction into five parts: site selection, wine rack, wine cellar air conditioning, insulation layer and lighting, and start this "wine project"!
Selected location
Generally speaking, the basement is the most ideal location for wine cellar, because the basement can meet the conditions of darkness, humidity and heat preservation at the same time.
Of course, not everyone can have a basement. If you plan to build the wine cellar indoors, you'd better build it in a place with less direct sunlight.
Moreover, the location of the wine cellar should be far away from railways, subways and highways, and long-term slight vibration will also affect the "sleep" of wine.
Wine rack
The wine rack in the wine cellar is suggested to be made of logs, and black walnut, red oak and red beech are all very durable and good choices. Because these logs are not easily deformed and have a small smell.
It must be noted that wooden wine racks cannot be painted! Because the smell of paint will destroy the aroma of wine in long-term storage.
The tilt angle of the wine rack is also particular. It is suggested to place the cork horizontally or at an angle of 30 to avoid the cork from drying up and causing leakage and deterioration.
Wine cellar air conditioning
Since it is necessary to maintain constant temperature and humidity, there should be air conditioning in the wine cellar. Someone asked, "Can you use ordinary household air conditioners instead?"
Various types of wine cellar air conditioners
The answer is: "No" wine cellar air conditioner has the advantages of high precision and low failure rate, and can also automatically adjust indoor temperature and humidity, which is not available in general household air conditioners.
If the budget is sufficient, it is recommended to equip two wine cellar air conditioners. One set runs continuously all the year round, and the other set can be topped in time if it is broken, otherwise your wine collection is likely to be destroyed.
insulating barrier
Insulation layer refers to the wall, ceiling and floor with the function of heat preservation and moisture preservation. Like the refrigerator box, it can not only make the environment of the wine cellar more constant, but also prolong the service life of the wine cellar air conditioner.
Of course, because of the high cost of insulation layer, you can decide whether to build it or not according to your personal economic strength.
The standard insulation layer of wine cellar should have five processes: moisture-proof layer, waterproof layer, sound insulation and shock absorption layer, insulation layer and fire prevention layer. Feeling a little dizzy? Never mind, this part of the work can be handed over to a professional wine cellar construction team ~
explain
Light, especially sunlight, can easily lead to premature oxidation of wine and ruin his life.
Therefore, it is best to use cold light source for wine cellar lighting, because incandescent lamps will generate heat, while fluorescent lamps will have invisible ultraviolet rays, which will destroy the wine structure.
According to these five sections, your "private wine cellar" project has been successfully completed, just waiting for the wine to enter!

Underground wine cellar is waterproof and moistureproof
As the saying goes, the quality of a wine cellar project depends on three materials and seven constructions.
Due to the particularity of long-term air circulation, the basement of villa is prone to leakage and moisture regain, so whether it is waterproof or moistureproof is the touchstone to test the quality of underground wine cellar.
How to make underground wine cellar waterproof and moistureproof?
basement
Before building an underground wine cellar, we must first carefully check the basement drawings.
Before the decoration construction unit enters the site, it shall hand over the operation surface with the supervision unit and the civil engineering unit, focusing on checking whether the ground at the top of the wall meets the decoration requirements, otherwise it will notify the civil engineering unit to carry out rectification until it is qualified.
High-quality waterproof coating and basic treatment are the cornerstones of underground wine cellar engineering.
water resistant paint
Standardize the application of waterproof coating, which is a kind of waterproof slurry directly used in waterproof layer construction. For example, one-component polyurethane waterproof coating can be directly opened to form a waterproof layer.
Waterproofing agent is mainly a waterproof additive added to concrete, cement mortar and other materials to increase its waterproof performance.
Make waterproof coating
Before painting, the surface layer needs to be scraped clean and painted with two layers of waterproof material. The first coat should be carefully applied to make it completely penetrate into the pores.
Let it stand for 24 hours, and then brush it for the second time after the first time is finished to form an integral waterproof coating. The treated waterproof surface must be free of air holes.
A qualified wine cellar must be moisture-proof and waterproof on six sides.

Waterproofing must be done well to avoid rain or ground leakage damage, resulting in secondary decoration. Friends who often do engineering projects know that in the rainy season in the south, the resurgence of the ground floor and basement is often very serious, and the wall can even drip.
Waterproof schematic diagram
There are two main reasons for this kind of problem: First, the water vapor content in the air reaches more than 90%, and it is easy to form condensed water vapor on the floor surface when it meets the smooth and non-absorbent ground with low temperature.
The second reason is that the water in the foundation cushion soil rises by capillary action, which makes the ground wet. These two kinds of problems are also the direct factors leading to the humidity in the basement.
After the original ground is moistureproof, a new surface layer should be made. The selection of new surface materials should consider new ground materials with high strength, wear resistance and moisture resistance.
According to the characteristics of villa basement, plastic film has strong acid and alkali resistance, and the most important thing is excellent waterproof performance.
In terms of construction technology, it is necessary to make a 30mm thick 1: 3 cement mortar leveling layer on the original cushion, and the surface should be smooth and not abrupt to prevent the plastic film from being scratched. Then, two layers of plastic films are laid alternately on the leveling layer, leveled and compacted, and the overlap is not less than100 mm. On the paved films, the C20 fine stone concrete integral surface layer with a thickness of 60mm is poured, rammed and leveled, plastered with mortar, and calendered.
To sum up, waterproof and moisture-proof technology in basement is the premise and foundation of building high-quality underground wine cellar. If the waterproof and moisture-proof treatment is not proper, it is useless to import expensive wine cellar air conditioners.
In addition, if the humidity of the outside air itself is high, the humidity in the basement will accumulate if it is not treated in time, and the humidity will not be treated at the source, which is extremely harmful. Only by converting moisture into liquid water and transferring it to the outside can the moisture problem be fundamentally controlled.

Appreciation of wine cellar design
As a member of quality life, wine has entered the private wine cellar, which has become an independent design element as an indispensable building structure or facility for top villas. The prevalence of wine cellar fully embodies the design concept of quality life and leads the development trend of modern villas in the world. In China, it is not only the label of fashion, the pioneer of trend, but also the endorsement of quality life.
"In the wine cellar deep in the land, there are carefully cared for babies: yellow smooth neck bottles marked with the year of production. Because of their age, they are covered with fur-thick dust or gray or white fluff, just like the trembling tentacles of gray moths at night. The owner of the manor pulled out the cork of a bottle, and a quiet moment came. He raised his pot-bellied glass and proposed a toast to the tall dome. Look first, then smell, and finally taste. " Colette, a French woman writer, once described the beauty of tasting wine in the wine cellar in her works.
Different from those super sports cars and luxury yachts that can become tools to show off their wealth as long as they have money, private wine cellars can better reflect the owner's self-restraint and taste. No matter how things change, bottled red wine helps you preserve the taste at that time. Every time it opens in the dust, it has nothing to do with peach blossoms, but the sense of happiness and luxury that is understood, loved and leisurely.
