Why choose a solid wood wine bar?
Warm and inviting, the wooden bar gives an authentic look to your furnishings. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, solid wood has many qualities.

It is important for you that there is enough storage space for all your accessories.
💡To remember:
- Solid wood brings warmth, authenticity and character to your wine cellar or tasting space.

Choose a solid wood wine bar with storage space
Having a wine bar with storage is very important in the design of your tasting area. With or without drawers, with glass rails, with or without doors... Any storage space is useful to organise your tasting area without running around looking for accessories you might need.
Shelves will allow you to store your bottles while displaying them. Depending on the layout of your wine bar, your customers will be able to observe them, touch them and appreciate their visuals during this moment of tasting and exchange where you can highlight all the advantages of each vintage. Place the best-selling wine bottles in your solid wood wine bar for your customers to taste when they come.
Drawers will also be useful so that you can store your accessories such as corkscrews, wine aerators, wine stoppers, or even anti-drip collar rings.
The storage spaces closed by doors will offer you the possibility of arranging towels, containers, decanters, pitchers... to have all the necessary tasting equipment within reach. They will allow the storage of all the accessories and tasting equipment that you do not want to display on your wine bar in full view of your customers.

Choose a solid wood wine bar with a work surface
As explained earlier, it is important to choose the right wine bar for your business. It is necessary that it is solid, and that it has enough storage space so that you can store everything you need.
Wine bars that have work surfaces are very practical as they allow wine merchants to first uncork their bottles, serve the customer's glass before placing it on the counter. They can also be used as a space for preparing food to accompany your wine tastings, or simply to place some of your clean glasses without them being on the counter.
Remember to protect your worktop with a varnish, protective oil or a nice set to avoid any wine or liquid stains on the solid wood.
