Consider the number of wine bottles you have to find the perfect size for your cellar. According to experts, you will need about 50 sq. ft. of space for every 1000 wine bottles.

3. Third, check the humidity level and temperature of the location you are choosing for your cellar. According to experts, the ideal humidity level of a cellar should be between 50% to 70%.

And for temperature, make sure that it remains between 55oF to 65oF all the time.
