The Kitchen Disappearing Act — Allavino VCWR-24 Panel-Ready Dual Zone Wine Fridge
A 48-bottle dual zone wine fridge that slots under the counter, takes a custom panel, and looks like it was always supposed to be there.
The VCWR-24 is built for the kitchen where the wine storage needs to disappear. Its panel-ready glass frame accepts a custom overlay that matches your cabinetry flush — no visible handles, no mismatched finishes, just a seamless built-in look that your designer will actually approve. Front-venting airflow makes undercounter installation straightforward, and reversible hinges let you dial in the door swing before it's locked in place. Inside, four soft-glide wood shelves hold up to 48 bottles across two independently controlled zones — so your Burgundy and your Champagne stay exactly where they need to be without sharing a thermostat. Three-color LED lighting (blue, amber, or white) lets you set the mood without adding heat. Quiet compressor cooling keeps the whole thing running without intruding on the room.
What Sets the VCWR-24 Apart
Four things that make this the panel-ready dual zone pick for a serious kitchen build.

Who It's For — The Deck & Den Take
›
This one is for the person doing a kitchen renovation or new build who refuses to let the wine storage look like an afterthought. If you're working with a designer, an architect, or just have very specific opinions about your cabinetry, the VCWR-24 is built to accept a custom panel and disappear — it's genuinely meant to be invisible. The dual zone capability is real and meaningful: reds at cellar temp, whites chilled and ready, no juggling.
If you just need a wine fridge for a corner of the kitchen and don't care whether it blends in, a standard glass-door model will save you the panel cost and the installation planning. This unit is also not for outdoor use or commercial installations — residential kitchens and home bars only.
One thing to sort out before you order: the door handle is sold separately and you'll need to source your own custom panel overlay. Budget and plan for both — especially the panel, which typically needs to be fabricated to match your cabinetry.
- Kitchen renovations and new builds where the wine fridge needs to disappear into cabinetry
- Collectors who want reds and whites stored at independent temperatures in one undercounter unit
- Home bars and butler's pantries with a front-venting undercounter cutout
- Anyone working with a designer who has strong opinions about visible appliances

Frequently Asked Questions
›
Is the Allavino VCWR-24 a true built-in wine fridge?›
Yes. The VCWR-24 is designed for built-in undercounter installation with front-venting airflow, which means it does not require rear or side clearance. It can also be used freestanding if needed.
What are the cutout dimensions for the VCWR-24?›
The unit dimensions are 34.25" H × 23.75" W × 23.75" D. The installation drawing specifies a minimum cabinet opening of 890 mm H × 615 mm W × 623 mm D (approximately 35.04" H × 24.21" W × 24.53" D), with no cabinet back panel and adequate ventilation. — confirm the required cutout opening with the installation manual before cabinetry is built or modified.
Does the VCWR-24 come with a door handle?›
No. The door handle is sold separately. Because the VCWR-24 is panel-ready, the handle is typically sourced to match or integrate with your cabinetry hardware — plan for this before installation.
Does the custom panel overlay come with the VCWR-24?›
No. The custom panel overlay is sold separately and must be fabricated or sourced to match your cabinetry finish. The unit ships with the panel-ready glass frame door, which accepts the overlay once you have it made.
How many bottles does the VCWR-24 hold?›
The VCWR-24 holds up to 43–48 standard bottles across four wood glide-out shelves, each rated for 7 bottles. Actual capacity may vary depending on bottle shape and size.
How does dual zone temperature control work on the VCWR-24?›
The VCWR-24 has two independently controlled temperature zones — each set via its own digital control panel. You can keep reds at a warmer cellar temperature and whites at a cooler serving temperature simultaneously, without either zone affecting the other.
What LED lighting options does the VCWR-24 have?›
The VCWR-24 includes three-color LED lighting — blue, amber, or white — selectable to suit your preference. All three options are designed to illuminate the cabinet without generating heat that could affect temperature stability.
Can the door hinge be reversed on the VCWR-24?›
Yes. The VCWR-24 has a reversible door hinge, allowing you to choose the swing direction that works best for your cabinetry layout and kitchen traffic flow.
What electrical connection does the VCWR-24 require?›
The VCWR-24 operates on 120V / 60 Hz / 1.4A — standard household current. No special wiring is required; plug it into a standard outlet in or near the cabinet cutout.
Is the VCWR-24 approved for outdoor or commercial use?›
No. The VCWR-24 is rated for indoor residential use only — not approved for outdoor installation or commercial applications.
What warranty does the VCWR-24 come with?›
The VCWR-24 is covered by Allavino's 1-year parts and labor warranty and a 5-year compressor warranty, honored directly by the manufacturer.
How does the VCWR-24 compare to the Allavino VCWR-101/107?›
Both are panel-ready built-in wine fridges from Allavino's VCWR lineup. The VCWR-24 holds up to 48 bottles and fits a standard 24-inch undercounter opening. The VCWR-101/107 steps up to 107-bottle capacity for larger collections or wider installations.
Does Deck & Den offer a price match on the VCWR-24?›
Yes. If you find a lower price on the VCWR-24 from an authorized dealer, Deck & Den will match it. See our Price Match Guarantee for details.
