Details

When a collection has grown past the point where a cooler or a closet conversion can do the job properly, the Contemporary 5200 in Provincial Cherry is the kind of cabinet that resolves the question for good. It holds 622 bottles across double-deep all-wood racking and bulk stacking space, managed by a CellarPro cooling unit that maintains precise temperature and humidity simultaneously — the difference that separates true long-term aging storage from a refrigerator with good looks. The warm Provincial Cherry veneer and gently arched double-pane tinted glass doors are at home in a dining room, a finished basement or a second home, without announcing themselves as appliances.

The CellarPro unit runs on SB/0™ technology, meaning the cabinet sits flush against the wall with top-vent exhaust — no clearance gap, no awkward placement constraints. Inside, the all-wood interlocking racks use 3.8-inch slots sized to accommodate oversized Burgundy and Rhône bottles alongside standard Bordeaux formats. A digital thermostat, adjustable humidity control, energy-saver and quick-chill modes and both audible and visual alarms give you the monitoring depth a serious cellar requires. Foil-backed polyisocyanurate insulation keeps the thermal load stable and the CellarPro unit quiet under normal conditions.

Best For

  • A collection of 300–500+ bottles that has outgrown a single-zone cooler and needs humidity-controlled aging conditions
  • Placing a full-scale cabinet flush against a dining room or basement wall without building a dedicated alcove
  • Storing a mixed cellar with oversized Burgundy and Pinot Noir bottles alongside standard 750ml Bordeaux formats in the same racking system
  • Transitioning from a closet conversion to a freestanding unit that holds and ages wine at the same standard as a passive cellar

Features

  • Three CellarPro cooling unit configurations: Choose from the 1800QTL-ECX (2.4A running), 1800QT-ECX (2.9A running) or 1800XT-ECX (3.0A running) — all 115V/60Hz, manufactured in the USA. The right unit depends on your room’s thermal load; a selection guide is available to help you size correctly before ordering.
  • SB/0™ Technology allows flush-to-wall placement: No rear clearance gap is required, which matters if you’re fitting this into an alcove, against a dining room wall or into a cabinetry surround where every inch of depth is accounted for.
  • Foil-backed polyisocyanurate insulation: Higher R-value per inch than standard foam insulation, which reduces the thermal load the cooling unit must overcome and lowers long-term energy consumption.
  • Top-vent exhaust rather than rear exhaust: Heat exits through the top of the cabinet, not the back. This simplifies installation against finished walls and in built-in configurations without requiring rear ventilation clearance.
  • Double-deep all-wood interlock racking with 3.8-inch slots: 544 racked positions accommodate standard Bordeaux through larger Burgundy and Rhône formats. The remaining bulk space holds approximately 78 additional bottles stacked, bringing total capacity to 622.
  • Energy-Saver and Quick-Chill modes let you adjust how aggressively the unit cycles — useful when restocking after a large purchase or reducing power draw during stable conditions.
  • Audible and visual alarms flag temperature excursions without requiring you to check the digital display.
  • Stainless bar pulls and keyed security locks on both doors; an optional bottle probe is available for spot-checking internal temperature at specific rack positions.

Pairs Well With

  • The optional extended warranty — given the 5-year cooling unit and 2-year cabinet coverage that comes standard, an extension is worth considering on a cabinet at this price point and storage scale.

Thermal Load Calculations

Warranty:
2 Years (Cabinet) / 5 Years (Cooling Unit)
Optional Extended Warranty

What These Specs Mean

  • Startup Amps vs. Running Amps: Startup amps reflect the brief current surge when the compressor first engages; values up to 20.1 Amps mean a dedicated 20-amp circuit is required to prevent tripping a breaker.
  • Cooling Unit Options (QTL / QT / XT): Three CellarPro 1800-series units are available for this cabinet; they differ in noise output and thermal capacity, so use the Thermal Load Calculations link to match the right unit to your room's heat load.
  • Double Deep Racking: Bottles are stored two rows deep per slot, maximizing capacity within the cabinet footprint but requiring bottles in the back row to be moved to access the front row.

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 5200 Provincial be placed flush against a wall, or does it need clearance behind it?

A: The 5200 uses Le Cache's SB/0™ Technology, which routes exhaust through a top-vent rather than the rear. This means the cabinet can sit completely flush against a wall with zero rear clearance required — a significant advantage over rear-exhaust coolers when placing a unit this large in a dining room, living space or finished basement.

What is the actual bottle capacity, and does it accommodate oversized bottles like magnums?

A: Total rated capacity is 622 bottles: 544 racked slots at 3.8-inch spacing (double-deep) and approximately 78 bottles in bulk stacked storage. The all-wood interlock racks are universal and designed to fit oversized bottles, so heavier Burgundy-shaped bottles and magnums can be accommodated without modification.

Does the 5200 manage humidity, or is it just a temperature-controlled cooler?

A: The 5200 provides active, adjustable humidity control via the CellarPro unit — not just temperature. This is the key distinction between a true wine cabinet and a standard wine cooler or refrigerator. Coolers and refrigerators remove humidity as a byproduct of cooling, which dries out corks over time. The 5200 is engineered for long-term aging with both temperature and humidity maintained at proper cellar conditions.

What are the electrical requirements, and do I need a dedicated circuit?

A: The cabinet runs on 115V AC / 60 Hz standard household current. Three CellarPro cooling unit options are available: the 1800QTL-ECX draws 2.4 running amps / 14.2 startup amps; the 1800QT-ECX draws 2.9 / 20.1 amps; and the 1800XT-ECX draws 3.0 / 20.1 amps. Because startup amp draw can reach 20 amps on the QT and XT models, a dedicated 20-amp circuit is strongly recommended to avoid tripping a shared breaker.

What does the warranty cover and for how long?

A: Le Cache provides a 2-year warranty on the full cabinet and a separate 5-year warranty specifically on the CellarPro cooling unit. An optional extended warranty is also available for buyers who want coverage beyond those terms. The split warranty structure reflects that the cabinet construction and the refrigeration system are treated as distinct components with different expected service intervals.

How large is the 5200 and what should I know before delivery?

A: The cabinet measures 74 inches wide x 29 inches deep x 86 inches tall and weighs 510 lbs. At 74 inches wide, verify both your final placement opening and any doorways along the delivery path before scheduling. Le Cache provides a Wine Cabinet Delivery & Inspection Instructions document that outlines the full pre-delivery checklist. In-stock units ship within 5–7 days.

Our wine storage area was getting up to 73 degrees during the day so a quick ship time saved our wine inventory.

This is what service is supposed to be like...
