Climadiff CBU18DZBM wine cabinet
A slim wine cabinet for serving temperature, designed for integration under a counter. Two temperature zones and room for up to 18 bottles of wine.
The Climadiff CBU18DZBM is just 30 cm wide and fits where space is tight. The upper zone can be set from 5 to 12 °C and the lower zone from 12 to 20 °C, so white and red wine can each be kept at their own serving temperature in the same cabinet.

Two temperature zones
The upper zone can be set from 5 to 12 °C for serving white and sparkling wines, while the lower zone covers 12 to 20 °C for red wine at a near-room serving temperature. This way, each type of wine is ready at its own temperature in one and the same cabinet.
The upper zone holds 6 bottles and the lower zone 12. The cabinet features a temperature alarm and child lock.
Integrated under counter
The CBU18DZBM is designed to be built in under the counter, with a recess for the kitchen plinth so the cabinet blends discreetly into your units.
The door is reversible, so it can open whichever way suits your kitchen. Follow the ventilation instructions in the installation drawing to ensure correct operation.
Design and operation
The matt black door with grey glass lends an understated look that suits modern kitchens – and at just 30 cm wide, the cabinet takes up little space in a run of units.
Interior white LED lighting can be left on permanently, so you can see your collection without opening the door.

- Freestanding wine cabinets can, as the name suggests, stand on their own – so you can place them exactly where you want. Freestanding models offer plenty of flexibility and are easy to move whenever you wish.
- Wine cabinets for built-in under-counter installation have ventilation at the front, allowing the cabinet to be placed in a recess.
- Models for integrated under-counter installation come with a removable plinth, allowing the cabinet to be installed behind the kitchen plinth with an integrated ventilation grille.
- Wine cabinets for integration in a tall cabinet can be installed in tall-cabinet recesses. Tall-cabinet models require ventilation through a grille in the kitchen plinth and airflow up towards the ceiling.

The temperature in a wine cabinet is controlled at one or more levels using temperature zones. The ideal serving temperature varies by type of wine – white and sparkling wines are enjoyed cooler than red. Read more about the right serving temperature.
If you want perfectly tempered, ready-to-serve red, white and sparkling wine from the same cabinet, consider a model with two temperature zones. If you store sparkling, white and red wine in the same zone, we recommend a temperature of 12°C.
Wine cabinets with one temperature zone A single-zone wine cabinet can be set between 5 and 20°C, and the temperature applies to the entire cabinet.
Wine cabinets with two temperature zones A dual-zone wine cabinet lets you store different types of wine at different temperatures – for example white and sparkling wine at 7°C and red wine at 14°C. The zones are divided at the middle of the cabinet, with the cooler zone at the top and the warmer zone at the bottom. The upper and lower zones should differ by at least 1°C.
The stated bottle capacity is based on maximum use of space, measured with all shelves in place and using standard 75 cl Bordeaux bottles stored “top to bottom”. As bottle shapes and sizes vary, the actual capacity may in many cases be slightly lower than stated. This calculation method is standard among most wine cabinet manufacturers.
To store wine in the best possible way, the 5 golden rules must be observed. The result is better longevity, better flavour and an even better wine experience. When you store your wine in a Temptech wine cabinet, you can rest assured that all five are taken care of!
- Correct and constant temperature To preserve the quality of the wine, it should not be stored too cold or too warm. As a rule, the temperature for long-term storage should be between 10 and 12°C.
- Optimal humidity Humidity for wine storage should be between 50 and 70 per cent. If it is too low, the cork can dry out and let in air, which can impair the quality of the wine.
- Protection from sunlight and heat Excessive light and heat can accelerate the ageing process of wine, and sunlight also contains UV rays that can damage it. Our wine cabinets have protective UV filters in the glass doors and LED lighting that emits no heat.
- Protection from unwanted odours Odours from the surroundings or from treated wooden shelves can penetrate the cork and impair quality. Our wine cabinets have unvarnished wooden shelves that release no odours, and most of our models are also fitted with an active carbon filter that purifies the air inside the cabinet.
- Low vibration Vibrations – from the compressor, for example – can spread through the shelving system and adversely affect the development of the wine. Our wine cabinets are fitted with vibration dampers that protect the wine by significantly reducing vibrations.
