LAS VEGAS - Vinotemp unveiled its proprietary Zero-G Suspended Wine System at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show in Las Vegas.  More than 100,000 attendees are expected at KBIS and the IBS Builders' Show, both opening today along with several related confabs as part of  Design & Construction Week.

Zero-G uses white oak and aluminum rods to create the illusion of floating or suspended wine bottles, though it is both secure and customizable. The racks are custom designed and finished at Vinotemp’s bespoke Southern California manufacturing facility, and is constructed using handcrafted precision construction methods, white oak blocks and 3/8” aluminum rods.

The oak blocks may be stained or painted in the clients color choice. To personalize further, the Zero-G unit can be designed to accommodate varying bottle sizes.

“The trend towards contemporary and minimal design aesthetics in residential design continues to gain popularity, while private wine collecting and investing continues to increase at the same pace. Today’s modern home owners are looking for innovative wine bottle storage options that properly cellar their selection while providing an enticing visual display for family and friends,” says India Hynes, CEO of Vinotemp.
