Default [OFF-TOPIC] No cellar? no problem!

Can you imagine, I live at Bordeaux but my house does not have a cellar :-(
Well, I live in the Penedès region and I don't have a cellar either, but I can recommend you a cheap, non-space-hungry solution: buy a cheap, small fridge ("cheap" as in "just keep things cold and don't give me any extras", and "small" as in "80cm tall and no freezer") and put it at minimum power. Just remove the drawers, veggie trays, etc and leave only the flat trays. Arrange them in a way you can put bottles. Depending on the model, you may need to build additional trays yourself (just cut a piece of plastic or metal to the appropiate size). It is a very good solution because you keep the wine in a temperature-controlled environment. Whites and cavas are always ready to drink, and reds just need to be taken out of the "cellar" a while before drinking.
