Before coming to the GSB I work in a small cybersecurity company in Seattle, WA. One of the founders of the company had previously work on for one of Seattle's billionaires (I won't mention who, but there are only a few so you can take a guess). During our time working together he told me a story about his former employer that I found unbelievable. The story is retold below:
The employer hired a custom wine cellar maker to renovate a massive wine cellar at this person's home. The cellar was gorgeous and my friend remarks to a member of the employer's staff about what an a great job the craftsman had done. The other employee agreed that it was very nice and would serve the upcoming party well.... and then it would be torn down and redone again!
I've never personally been custom wine cellar shopping, but this story did get me think about the amount of money people pay to store their wine. I recently stumble across this article that claims to list 10 of the worlds most amazing wine cellars. Fair warning, they are incredible, and way over the top.
For those of us who aren't installing 2,000+ bottle cellars, I'd like to hear how you all store your special bottles? Do you simply keep them on a shelf or have you invested in one of the small wine coolers/fridges? Something else?
