The Miele KWT1611VI and KWT1601VI are two exceptional wine coolers designed for discerning wine enthusiasts who appreciate the art of wine storage. Miele is renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation, and these models exemplify this dedication.

The KWT1611VI boasts a sleek, integrated design that allows it to blend seamlessly into any kitchen or dining area. It features a capacity for up to 38 bottles, making it ideal for wine collectors and casual drinkers alike. It includes two temperature zones, which can be individually adjusted from 41°F to 68°F. This feature ensures optimal storage for both white and red wines, preserving their flavors and aromas.

One of the standout technologies of the KWT1611VI is Miele's Active AirClean filter. This specially designed filter eliminates unwanted odors, creating a perfectly neutral environment for wine storage. Additionally, the KWT1611VI employs vibration dampening technology, which minimizes vibrations that can disturb wine.

The innovative LED lighting illuminates the interior without generating heat, ensuring your wine bottles are showcased beautifully while being stored at the correct temperatures.

In addition to their robust functionality, the KWT1611VI and KWT1601VI are constructed with high-quality materials, including stainless steel and UV-resistant glass. This not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the coolers but also protects wine from harmful UV radiation, which can degrade quality over time.
