What we build here
What a cellar in San Ramon could look like
Phasing works best when the final layout is settled before the first racks go up. Reserve the access and mounting requirements now, and confirm matching components each time you are ready to expand.
Choose a rack system
Compare VintageView, Modularack and other suitable racking against your bottle shapes, wall space and the look you want.
Draw the complete layout
Mike reviews the finished room with the contractors he brings in even when you are ordering a smaller first phase. Doors and equipment service areas stay clear in the full layout.
Check availability at each stage
Adding racks later? Bring Mike the system name and finish and he will check what currently matches before your next purchase.
What we do here
Four jobs, one showroom
We plan and supply the cellar. Mike sizes the storage and cooling, orders the equipment, and schedules the contractors he brings in for the build and installation.
Design and capacity
Rack elevations and a bottle count by format, so you know what the room holds before anything is ordered.
Racking
VintageView metal, Modularack pine, redwood and mahogany kits, and custom millwork when the room refuses to be rectangular.
Cooling
WhisperKOOL, Wine Guardian, CellarPro and CellarCool, sized against the room's heat load rather than its square footage.
Install coordination
Delivery, the install date and the contractors Mike brings in, coordinated from the showroom so the room is ready when the equipment is.

This one is in San Ramon: walnut racking, diamond bins and display surfaces.
Look for: the diamond bins, and how the walnut turns the corner at the door.

Same showroom, same equipment, different rooms. These are the neighbors we work in most often.
Straight answers
Asked in San Ramon
- Do I have to buy all the racking at once?
- Not necessarily. Talk a phased layout through with Mike, including how future additions would mount and fit. Nobody can promise a manufacturer's range or finish will stay available forever, so plan with that in mind.
- The house is a year old. Does that make it easier?
- Easier to build in, harder to guess at. Newer construction is tighter, which changes how a room behaves once a cooling unit is running inside it. Get the dimensions to Mike before the contractors he brings in frame anything.
- How long does a cellar in San Ramon take?
- It depends on design decisions, product availability and the schedule of the contractors Mike brings in. Tell Mike your plans and target date and he will walk through the next steps and current lead times.
- Do you come out to San Ramon to measure?
- Send whatever dimensions and photos you have to (925) 944-1084. Between you Mike will work out whether a site visit would help, who handles it and which drawings the project needs.
- What will it cost?
- It depends on room prep, racking, cooling and finishes. Send dimensions and a bottle count and Mike will talk through the scope and what he needs to put a project quote together.
- What if I already have a San Ramon general contractor or architect?
- Mike works alongside them when the cellar is part of a larger project. Bring the current plans while the construction details, equipment requirements and finishes can still move.
