Curated Wine Cellars & Private Tasting Rooms
Climate-engineered wine storage vaults, private sommelier tasting rooms, and illuminated architectural bottle display systems.
A fine wine collection is both an investment and a passion that deserves architectural celebration. Rowui creates climate-controlled wine cellars and private tasting rooms engineered to hold collections of hundreds to thousands of bottles under strict environmental conditions: a constant 13°C (55°F) and 65-70% relative humidity. We combine custom solid walnut racking, thermally broken double-glazed vitrines, and zero-heat architectural lighting.
