Goguette: designer, made-in-France wine fridges for epicureans
Storing wine is an issue for wine lovers and collectors. Of course, most wines are drunk within a few days of purchase, so this isn’t a big issue. But for more considered purchases of interesting wines, sometimes the wines are kept for months or years before opening. And for some fine wines, they are bought in multiples of six or 12 and then drunk over a few years.
One option is to keep the wines you’ve purchased in bond, and then take delivery when you want to drink them. But if you are liberating a case of wines from storage you’ll likely not drink them all at once. So some sort of home storage is needed, and the gold standard is a wine fridge that keeps the wines at cellar temperature, protecting them from light.
Goguette, the new trendy French wine cellar brand
There’s a new player on the block when it comes to wine fridges, and this is Gougette. No one wants industrial-looking appliances in their living or dining rooms, and so it’s good to see the combination of stylish design with a fridge that reliably keeps a perfect temperature for wine evolution.

Goguette wine fridges
Goguette design
The key aspect of the Goguette wine fridges is their design. They are made to look good in a range of domestic settings, and come in three different colours: white, blue and black. They also have a discreet light strip that works without changing the temperature of the fridge.
Wine storage fridges
Single-temperature wine fridges are ideal for storing bottles in stable conditions over years. They’re designed for those who want to keep their wines in a controlled environment, waiting for just the right time to enjoy them. These come in three different sizes, with varying numbers of shelves. There’s also the possibility of having a solid rather than glass door.
Multi-zone wine fridges
Multi-zone fridges have storage at three different temperatures. The idea here is to keep wines safe, but also at the temperature ideal for service. So you could have whites, sparkling, rosés and reds all at the right temperature to pull out from the fridge and serve. Using this multizone fridge means you can also keep other drinks here, such as beer.
The Goguette shelf
Most wine fridges have shelving designed for the Bordeaux-shaped bottle, but as everyone who has ever used these shelves knows, wine bottles are all different. The Goguette shelf is innovative and has been specially made to accommodate bottles of different sizes and shapes.
Guide to choosing your type of wine cellar
When it comes to choosing the right wine cellar option, a number of factors must be considered. There’s budget, and then size of the cellar you need. Consumption habits are also a factor: do you want a single zone wine fridge or a three-zone fridge to serve a range of wines at optimum temperature. Finally, design: what looks best in the space you have?
Goguette wine fridges as a lifestyle
A confident design for epicureans
These fridges aren’t simply functional items. Instead, they have a distinctive design. They are aesthetic objects that add positive elements to room design.
French quality
Built in France means that they are of top quality, made of good materials to a high performance standard. If you get a wine fridge, you want it to function well for many years.
Wine service as an art of living
With wines stored at the right temperature for preservation and serving, wine service is integrated into the home in the best way. There are no more piles of boxes, or ugly wine racks littering the kitchen and storing wine at unsuitable temperatures.
