• A glass door, sleek and elegant for a highly aesthetic visual effect;
• Side LED lights built into the cabinet to showcase your bottles with soft lighting;
• Comprehensive equipment: includes 5 fixed wooden shelves + 1 presentation shelf;
• 1 thermometer/hygrometer + 3 thermometers for optimal precision at all times;
• 1 active carbon filter to neutralise odours and purify the air;
• Excellent cold distribution to ensure even cooling;
• 2 sensors connected to a secure electronic thermostat for precise regulation;
• 1 visual and sound alarm that alerts you in case of a temperature rise;
• Cold protection feature to prevent freezing of bottles in case of an external temperature drop between 5°C and 0°C.

Wine Fridge with 6 Temperature Zones

The VIP196 is a multi-temperature wine fridge. Depending on your settings, it can provide up to 6 different temperature zones! This feature is essential if your wine collection includes as many red wines as white, rosé, or even Champagne.

If you set the lowest temperature at the bottom of the fridge and the highest at the top, the difference between them is automatically divided, creating up to 6 distinct temperature zones in a single fridge.

Alternatively, if you prefer a single, uniform temperature for ageing your wines, simply set the same temperature in both the upper and lower sections of the fridge.
