A custom tasting table was designed with a wine-colored wood panel that flows throug its center.
June Shea turned the low-height basement of an 1812 Alexandria row house into a European-style wine cellar. “The owners wanted to accommodate 400 bottles and up to six people for tastings,” she recalls. “They also wanted space for a washer/dryer, an HVAC closet and a daybed.” Removing the drywall ceiling to expose beams and timbers added height and ambiance. PVC pipes were replaced by copper and a former well was encased in concrete and topped with granite to form a table. Custom pendants by an artisan found on Etsy are made from wine bottles.
