Le Cache Contemporary 2400 Provincial #736
Details
When a collection has grown past 150 bottles and a kitchen cooler or closet conversion is no longer a serious option, the Le Cache 2400 in Provincial Cherry is the cabinet most collectors land on. At 39 inches wide and 82 inches tall, it holds 286 bottles in a double-door footprint that fits against a dining room wall or in a finished basement without requiring a built-in installation. The CellarPro cooling unit inside manages both temperature and humidity with a digital display visible through the Venetian arch windows — a meaningful distinction from a refrigerator or standard wine cooler, neither of which controls humidity over the long term.
The Provincial Cherry finish works across a range of interiors, from Craftsman and traditional dining rooms to more contemporary spaces. The all-wood interlock racks hold standard Bordeaux bottles and oversized formats alike, and the SB/0 technology means the cabinet can sit flush against a wall rather than requiring clearance for rear exhaust. Top-vent exhaust handles air circulation upward, which keeps the unit out of the way in tighter spaces.
Best For
- Moving a 150–286 bottle collection from a closet conversion or undercounter cooler into a dedicated temperature- and humidity-controlled environment
- Placing in a dining room or study where the unit needs to look like furniture and run quietly enough not to be noticed
- Collectors storing a mix of standard Bordeaux bottles and larger formats who need racks that accommodate both without adapters
- Outfitting a second home or finished basement where a self-contained freestanding unit is more practical than a built-in installation
Features
- SB/0® Technology for flush wall placement: The cabinet is engineered to sit directly against a wall without a clearance gap at the rear, so it integrates like built-in furniture rather than projecting into the room.
- Top-vent exhaust: Heat is expelled upward rather than from the back or sides, which allows the unit to be recessed into an alcove or flanked by cabinetry without blocking airflow.
- Foil-backed polyisocyanurate insulation: Higher R-value per inch than standard foam, which reduces the thermal load on the cooling unit and helps maintain stable internal conditions when ambient room temperatures fluctuate.
- 3.8-inch universal racking slots: 256 racked positions accommodate standard Bordeaux bottles as well as larger-format bottles including Burgundy and Champagne shapes. The remaining ~30-bottle bulk space handles magnums or cases.
- Adjustable humidity control with audible and visual alarms: Humidity is actively managed, not just passively maintained. Alarms trigger on both temperature and humidity deviations, not just temperature, which matters for long-term cork integrity.
- Energy-Saver and Quick-Chill modes: Energy-Saver reduces compressor cycling during stable ambient conditions; Quick-Chill accelerates cooling after a large restocking event without manual thermostat adjustments.
- Security lock on both doors with stainless bar pulls
- Low-heat interior LED lighting included
- 5-year warranty on the CellarPro cooling unit; 2-year warranty on the full cabinet
Pairs Well With
- The optional bottle probe accessory, which monitors the temperature of an actual bottle rather than the air inside the cabinet — useful for verifying true wine temperature rather than ambient cabinet air temperature during aging.

What These Specs Mean
- Running vs. Startup Amps: The startup (inrush) draw is several times higher than the running draw — this determines whether your existing circuit can handle the unit without tripping a breaker, and is the figure to give an electrician when planning a dedicated circuit.
- Cooling Unit Options (QTL / QT / XT): These are three distinct CellarPro compressor configurations with different efficiency and noise profiles; the 1800QTL-ECX draws the least current at startup (14.2 Amps), making it the better fit for circuits with limited headroom or noise-sensitive living spaces.

Please note:
(1) We count the top of the racks as 1 row when counting rows in our racks.
(2) Every slot in the racks is 3 3/4" and sized to fit oversized Burgundy and most Champagne-size bottles.
(3) Bulk storage is located atop the racks (except for the first row atop the racks). Bulk storage capacity is based on Bordeaux-size bottles.
(4) Total capacity is the sum of racked plus bulk capacity, with double-deep storage in all cases except the Contemporary Credenza (which is single-deep). Usable capacity may be lower by 2-3 bottles when the first few cells under the cooling unit are left empty for proper air circulation.
FAQs
Can the Le Cache 2400 Provincial be placed flush against a wall, or does it need clearance behind it?
A: Yes — the cabinet uses Le Cache’s SB/0™ Technology, which routes exhaust through a top vent rather than the rear. This allows the unit to sit completely flush against a wall with zero rear clearance required. It is a freestanding cabinet, not a built-in, but the top-vent design makes it practical for tight dining room, living room or basement placements where rear clearance is unavailable.
What are the electrical requirements, and does it need a dedicated circuit?
A: The cabinet runs on 115V AC / 60 Hz standard household current. Depending on which CellarPro cooling unit is installed, running amperage is 2.4 Amps (1800QTL-ECX), 2.9 Amps (1800QT-ECX) or 3.0 Amps (1800XT-ECX). Startup (compressor) amps are significantly higher — 14.2 to 20.1 Amps depending on the unit — which is the figure relevant to circuit sizing. A dedicated 20-amp circuit is the standard recommendation for any of these configurations.
Will it actually hold 286 bottles, including larger Bordeaux or Burgundy bottles?
A: Total rated capacity is 286 bottles: 256 bottles in racked slots with 3.8-inch slot spacing and approximately 30 bottles in bulk stacking space. The all-wood interlock racks use a universal design built to accommodate oversized bottles, so standard Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne formats fit without modification. Double-deep storage doubles the density per row, so the physical footprint — 39” wide x 29” deep x 82” tall — delivers a high bottle-per-square-foot ratio.
Does this cabinet actively manage humidity, or does it only control temperature?
A: It manages both. The integrated CellarPro cooling unit includes adjustable humidity control with a digital display — a meaningful distinction from wine coolers and standard refrigerators, which cycle moisture out of the air and are not suited for long-term cork-sealed bottle storage. Maintaining humidity in the correct range prevents corks from drying and allows for multi-year to multi-decade aging.
How quiet is the CellarPro cooling unit, and is this cabinet appropriate for a living room or dining room?
A: Le Cache specifically updated this cabinet series with what they describe as the most advanced and quietest CellarPro cooling units available. The 1800QTL-ECX variant draws only 2.4 running amps, reflecting its high efficiency, and CellarPro publishes detailed sound performance data for each unit. For living room or dining room placement, the QTL configuration is the quietest option among the three available.
What does the warranty actually cover, and for how long?
A: The warranty has two separate terms: 2 years on the entire cabinet and 5 years specifically on the cooling system. An optional extended warranty is also available for purchase. Because the cooling unit is the most mechanically complex component, the longer 5-year coverage on that component is the more consequential part of the warranty for long-term reliability.
