Wine-tasting rooms are trending right now for two reasons. First, wine is a growing “hobby” and has been for quite some time. Second, and more importantly from a home technology perspective, the climate control and design technology for wine storage is awesome. These rooms are no longer buried in the bowels of a home but instead take center stage in a home with modern glass-fronted design, interesting storage shelving and so much more. Here are five examples of truly luxurious wine-tasting rooms built in equally impressive mansions.
1. The Wine Storage Room, aka “Cellar”
You walk into the wine room, and it’s like stepping into your own private cellar—sleek metal racks holding rows of bottles, each one carefully placed to show you’re serious about your collection. Minimalist shelves at the back highlight a few standouts, while the lighting adds a touch of luxury. This isn’t just storage; it’s a brag-worthy centerpiece.
In order to come up with the very specific design ideas, we create most designs with the assistance of state-of-the-art AI interior design software.
The Adjacent Wine Tasting Bar
Then there’s the bar. Dark stone countertops, metallic stools, and just enough glass shelving to keep things sleek without feeling overdone. Through the glass doors, the wine room is always in view, pulling the whole space together. Natural light pours in, creating the perfect setting for mixing drinks or just sitting back and enjoying how great the place looks. It’s made for entertaining—or just impressing yourself.
The Waterfront 7,490 Sq. Ft. Mansion that Houses this Wine Tasting Area
I’ll end wine tasting room number one with a photo of the home for context. I always find it far more interesting to see what the home looks like when viewing any interior. It’s a 7,490 sq. ft. mansion with five bedrooms and five full baths.

2. The Showpiece Glass-Fronted Wine Storage Space
Sleek black racks span from floor to ceiling defince this state-of-the-art wine room. The adjacent counter offers space for decanters and bottles, with glass racks above for easy access. It’s a modern, functional space designed for both storage and style, perfect for serious wine collectors.
A Different View Showing the Adjacent Tasting Room with Bar
Another view of the same wine storage area and tasting area with small bar area for bottles, glassware and other wine tasting impelments. The outer room offers sufficient space for a set of pub-style table and chairs.
The 8,031 Sq. Ft. Mansion that Houses the Wine Space
Here’s the exterior of this mansion for our second wine-tasting room. It’s an 8,031 sq. ft. mansion with six bedrooms and eight bathrooms situated on a canal waterway mansion. Custom built in 2018, it features a 15,000 lb. capacity boat lift as well.

3. A More Old School Wine Cellar Design
This is a custom-built 1,000 bottle wine cellar room with a small shelf for a decanter, a couple of glasses and a couple of bottles. This is more of an old-school wine-cellar design with wood racks which looks good in any more traditional style of home (which this is – Mediterranean-style mansion).
Full Wine Tasting Room Adjacent to the Cellar
What I love about this home’s wine cellar and tasting area set up is the dedicated tasting room adjacent to the cellar. It’s cozy with a table for sitting around to chat and enjoy whatever the cellar has to offer.

As you can see, the more old school style wine room in this gallery belongs to a Mediterranean style mansion. This mansion is 7,960 sq. ft. with five bedrooms and five bathrooms. It’s a true estate in every sense of the word being a waterfront property with pool, manicured grounds and a sport court.

4. Awesome Example of the Wine Storage Room Being a Centerpiece in the Home
I like this modern wine room because it’s designed to not only be a functional part of this home’s main living space but because it’s so cool, it also serves as decorative. I mean come on – that is one cool design feature that serves as a centerpiece in the huge open area of this contemporary home.
Close-Up View of the Climate-Controlled Wine Storage Space
Here’s a close-up of this climate-controlled wine room with the ability to store both regular and magnum-sized bottles. I like the center shelf for showcasing bottles upright. The latest in wine room storage design is such a breath of fresh air, especially for contemporary homes like this. Old school wine storage rooms were brick/stone and wood cellars buried in the bowels of a home but with climate control, you can create a showpiece wine room anywhere in the home.
View of the Fortress-Like Waterfront Mansion
Here’s the interesting fortress-style mansion that houses the fourth wine room. This home is 8,766 sq. ft. with six bedrooms and six bathrooms. It’s a bayfront estate with its own dock and seawall.

5. Elegant Dedicated Wine Tasting Space with Storage and Old-World Club-Like Room
This 800-bottle custom wine storage and tasting space is a dedicated wine aficionado’s room with armchairs and decanting table next to the contemporary wine storage room. Once again, as you can see from four out of five wine rooms in this article, the glass, climate-controlled wine storage feature is the future of wine storage spaces.
A View of the Impressive Old-World Mansion (7,635 Sq. Ft.)
The last wine room is housed in this grand Mediterranean-style mansion handsomely sitting behind a low wall and gate on display for the world to appreciate. It has five bedrooms and six bathrooms spanning 7,635 sq. ft.
