You are not really much of a wine fanatic but there is no need to disconcert wine cellar from wine refrigerator. They are quite different. A wine refrigerator cools wines at proper temperatures while a wine cellar is a storage device. Still not quite clear?

You can store your wine in a wine refrigerator for less than one year and not more than that. It’s not a device for aging wines. Even so, there are some wine fridges that have been utilized as replacements for wine cellars to cut down the costs. This is probably why people have problems differentiating wine cellars from wine refrigerators.
Take note that white wine is usually stored at chilled places while red wine is stored at room temperature. This is one important point aside from distinguishing wine cellars from wine fridges.
