Wine Master Cellars, creators of the patented VintageView label-forward wine storage system, has expanded into the grocery channel. Initially designed as a wall-mounted wine rack, VintageView can now be adapted to fit with most supermarket gondola systems to provide label-forward wine storage for prompt label recognition and to showcase today’s colorful and interesting labels.
With a three-bottle capacity system that holds approximately 54 bottles for standard four-foot wide, six-foot tall standard gondola shelf, supermarkets can maximize space and provide less handling and breakage. The modular lay-down design keeps wine bottle corks moist, offering freshness and longevity.
The systems are available in standard black, brushed nickel, as well as custom powder coat colors including white and rustic red. VintageView Wine Storage Systems can be found at select Whole Foods, Safeway, and Wegmans supermarkets.
