Another consideration is the temperature you need to maintain your wine at. Reds and whites need different temperatures. Red wine needs 55 to 56 degrees F., whites need 49 t0 56 degrees F. and Rose wine needs 49 to 51 degrees F. If you have all the types of wine you can purchase a dual temperature zone cooler that has two temperature zones. The main thing is to keep your wine cool and away from the sun–plus at the perfect temperature for drinking.
