Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB wine cooler: 51 bottles in a single zone from 4 to 22 °C, compressor cooling, beech shelves with a display position and a triple-glazed LOW-E door with UV-protected glass — in a matt black retro design just 47 cm wide.
Retro character and Danish design in a 47 cm width
The Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB pairs unmistakable retro cues — matt black surface, rounded corners, a slim body — with the restrained Nordic look Cavecool is known for. It stands 136.2 cm tall and measures only 47 cm across, so it adds character to a living room, dining room or kitchen without taking up the space of a cabinet. This is a wine cooler designed to be seen rather than tucked away.
51 bottles in a single 4 to 22 °C zone
The interior holds up to 51 bottles and runs on one temperature zone adjustable from 4 to 22 °C, with a 12 °C factory setting. A single zone keeps things simple: choose a temperature and the whole cabinet follows it, which works well when you mainly keep one style of wine or want one steady storage temperature. Compressor cooling maintains that setting within climate class N.
Beech shelves with a display position
The cabinet comes with six beech wood shelves. The five upper shelves can be used flat for storage or angled into a display position, letting you highlight selected bottles without taking them out. The lower framed shelf takes four bottles lying flat. It is a simple arrangement that lets the cooler work as storage and as a small display case at the same time.
Digital controls, turbo mode and temperature alarm
The digital control panel makes temperature adjustment straightforward, and the white display lighting keeps the settings easy to read. There is a turbo mode that takes the setting to 4 °C, a separate button for the interior light, a child lock, and the option to switch between °C and °F. A temperature alarm flags deviations from the set value — useful when bottles are left undisturbed for long stretches.
Triple-glazed LOW-E door and freestanding placement
The triple-glazed LOW-E door with UV-protected glass limits light entering the cabinet and supports steadier internal conditions, while white LED lighting in the upper section shows the bottles off. The stated noise level is 39 dB and annual consumption is 133 kWh (energy class G). The unit is freestanding only and the manufacturer states it must not be built in: leave at least 100 mm behind it and 50 mm at each side, and level it on a firm floor using the adjustable feet.

Why buy the Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB wine cooler?
- A collection at a realistic size: 51 bottles cover what you drink regularly plus a little laid down for later, without stepping up to a large-format cabinet or a complicated installation.
- Display, not just storage: the angled display shelves and LED lighting give the cooler a presence of its own, and the retro styling sets it apart from a conventional wine cabinet.
- Slim, self-sufficient, easy to live with: at 47 cm wide it slots into gaps where other units won't go, while turbo mode, the temperature alarm and the child lock take day-to-day monitoring off your hands.
Frequently asked questions about the Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB wine cooler
- Is the Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB intended for domestic or professional use? The Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB is aimed at domestic use, including keen wine lovers and collectors managing a mid-sized collection. Its 51-bottle capacity and narrow body suit homes, and the retro styling also makes it a fit for small hospitality settings such as a bar area or compact dining room. It is not designed for intensive professional storage.
- How does this single-zone wine cooler differ from a dual-zone model? In a single-zone wine cooler such as the Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB, the temperature you set between 4 and 22 °C applies to the entire interior. A dual-zone model can hold two different temperatures at once, for example whites ready to serve and reds at storage temperature. If you mostly keep one style of wine or prefer one steady temperature, a single zone is simpler to manage.
- What is the display position on the shelves for? The five upper shelves of the Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB can be used flat for storage or tilted into a display position. Tilted, they present the bottle face-on with the label visible, so individual wines can be highlighted inside the cabinet. It is a presentation feature, and it reduces how many bottles that shelf holds compared with the flat storage position.
- Where can it be installed and how much clearance does it need? The Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB is a freestanding wine cooler that the manufacturer states must not be built in or recessed. It should stand on a firm, level floor with at least 100 mm of clearance behind it and 50 mm at each side so air can circulate around the compressor. The adjustable feet are used to level the unit so the door and magnetic seal close correctly.
- Is this a quiet wine cooler? The Cavecool Retro Basalt CC156SB is rated at 39 dB, a moderate figure for a compressor wine cooler and one that makes it viable in a living or dining room. Because it uses compressor cooling, the cooling cycle is audible at times, unlike thermoelectric units, which are quieter but offer less cooling capacity.
