Cellar Masters:

Creating Wine Features of Your Dreams

Oenophiles (from the Greek oinos, meaning wine, and philia, love) delight in drinking and discussing all things wine. The mark of any true wine connoisseur worth their grapes is their collection of prized wines, a valuable commodity that requires proper storage to preserve until the cork is popped.

Scott Berry founded Cellar Masters in 1990 for just that reason—to create custom wine cellars to store and display their clients’ fine wine collections safely.

“Our sole business is the design, construction and installation of climate-controlled custom wine cellars and wine storage solutions,” says Scott, a licensed contractor whose team has installed more than 2,500 custom wine cellars throughout the region.

As vineyard owners, winemakers and avid wine collectors, the Cellar Masters team applies their knowledge and expertise to create wine features for each client’s specific needs.

“We are devoted to creating beautiful custom wine cellars every step of the way. We know the proper handling, storage, and organization of wine, beer and spirits,” says Scott. “We understand our client’s tastes are unique for each job, so we personalize your wine cellar to suit your needs. You dream it, and Cellar Masters will create it!”

Serving both residential and commercial clients, Cellar Masters’ team of design experts and installation professionals work in concert to build custom wine cellars of all shapes and sizes to protect your wine collection and enhance your home or business. From the elegant beauty of a traditional wine cellar to contemporary wine walls, Cellar Masters excels at customizing wine features to fit any space.

“Some people think they don’t have space for a wine cellar, and they are surprised to learn they can take advantage of unused space under a staircase or transform an unused closet into a beautiful and functional wine cellar,” says Scott. “We always love being contacted by our clients to create a wine feature in their homes.”

A recent project involved turning a China hutch nook into a contemporary wine wall. The Cellar Masters team created a 420-bottle capacity wine feature with traditional lower racking made from alder and Vintage View Evolution low-profile upper racks in matte black. The feature also features faux stone walls, single deep label view pins for magnums, and a double door locking glass entry.
