Visiting this perfectly designed and impeccably operated wine storage business was a revelation, as it was operating-room clean and easy to navigate thanks to clever signage.

With the temperature/humidity controls keeping bottles cool and corks plump, and metal storage/racking system offering tight security, this facility has videotaping, generator backup for their cooling system, and put plenty of thought into making sure that you have easy access to your prized vino.

They have nearly any size unit you might need, for holding just a handful of cases, to spaces you could park a subcompact car in.

Bob Wesley, former wine guy at Lazy Acres, invites you to visit him at The Winehound, a new store featuring the world’s best wines—from the "everyday" to a luxury cuvee—all top dogs, no mutts!
