Our Story

Welcome to Wine Refrigeration, your online resource for the very best wine refrigeration equipment, wine storage and wine display racks, and custom wine cellar design and construction services.

“Our passion is the protection of wine collections, you can say it was the birth of our business. As avid collectors, we know how much it matters!”

We met cheering on our kids playing baseball. I’m a serial entrepreneur who has built world-class sales organizations with a focus on best-in-class products, and Hilton is a mechanical engineer with management experience in big Pharma and a specialty in refrigeration and HVAC. We both enjoy and collect wine. We both call the Caribbean our home. The conversation naturally turned to where we store our collections, how we protect them with proper storage equipment and temperature control, and the extra challenge that the moist, salty air poses to our collections, and to the equipment we use.

“We both had the same question – why isn’t anyone helping people protect their wine collections?”

I knew as a consumer that no one was producing the types of custom cellars and wine storage solutions that Hilton and I were discussing. So over a glass of wine Caribbean Custom Cellars was born. And over the coming years, we would build countless cellars, ranging from modest in size to capable of storing hundreds of bottles. We even built two separate cellars in one client’s home – a smaller display cellar and a larger storage cellar. From consultation and design to specifying the refrigeration equipment and other key components of the build, and then finally the installation, we made sure everything was done as if we were protecting our own collections. And along the way, we built a reputation for advising our clients to use the best. Never cut corners. And we will always be a phone call away if they need support.

“We’re both innovators – finding solutions that outperform and exceed your expectations is our mission!”

Sometimes, the best solution for wine storage is a stand-alone refrigerated wine storage cabinet. Many exist. Most are ugly and utilitarian, and not befitting the homes they will live in. Enter Della Marta™.
