Hi, I'm a student out there that is slowly getting weaned off my father's cellar and looking to start my own. I have ~200 bottles sitting in his space right now but I will soon be moving to downtown Toronto and would love to take my wine with me. Anyone in the area interested in parting with a nice used cellaring unit, anywhere from 50-250 bottles? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

If you can't find a used one, try this place downtown. They usually have their warehouse sale around Feb / March, and they do have used cellar.

Or since you are downtown, you might want to consider offsite. There are couple of forumites using one saround Spadina / King area. Don't have the full details, but I'm sure they will chime in.

Yes, for offsite storage, you can look at the Fine Wine Reserve.

You'll need to look at a 32 case locker to have room for your wine and have some space to grow.

Thanks guys. I've looked into the warehouse sale and there are some great VKs that are popping up for sale at a price I can afford!

MeritageMan,

Welcome to the forums.

I thought I would provide some food for thought. If you are renting in Toronto, you might want to consider off site storage vs buying a self contained unit.

The reason I mention this is because the VC units are so tough to construct and de construct as well as quite heavy to move.

Just my 2 cents.

Off site is practical as well as reasonable in price.
