Any wine collection is not complete without a collection of wine glasses with which to drink the wine. Wine glass racks can store your stemware easily and elegantly. Not only will a wine glass rack save cabinet space, but it will also help keep the wine glasses dust-free.

For a small wine and wine glass collection, consider buying a wine rack and glass combination. These cost under $50 and hold around six bottles of wine and a modest wine glass collection. Serious wine collectors should avoid hanging the rack in the kitchen because wine should be kept in cool, dark areas without strong odors. By the way, you should never store wine on a refrigerator. It spoils the wine.

Separate wine glass racks are more practical for wine collectors who have a large collection of wine glasses and want to keep them separate from the wine. Simple wood racks are available to attach underneath a kitchen cabinet. They hold around 20 glasses and cost under $25.

More elaborate wine glass racks can be displayed. Metal racks with grape designs are appropriate for most décors. Many have shelves above the wine glass racks. You could store accessories here like collector glasses, wine buckets, cozies, a cork collection, or bottle openers. Many cost under $50, but a steel, contemporary wine glass rack can cost over $100.

Online wine cellar suppliers sell wine glass racks with their wine storage collections. These let you design your own storage system with wine racks, tabletops for tasting wine, and wine glass racks.

Specialty wine suppliers sell many wine glass racks, but you can also buy them from chain home stores and organizational stores. Don’t be afraid to buy a cheap wine glass rack and then customize it with paint or detailing.
