LOS ANGELES, Calif. October 21, 2010 – The owners of Vinotemp International, a recognized leader in the wine storage and refrigeration industry for 25 years, recently announced that they have purchased the assets of Seattle based Apex Saunas and Wine Cellars to form a new company, Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas. The new company, now located in Los Angeles, California offers both trade and consumers an extensive selection of wine racking used to create stunning wine cellars as well as innovative saunas and steam baths.

“This acquisition would not have been possible without strategic planning and dedication,” says India Hynes, president of Vinotemp International and CEO of Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas. “Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas is proud to offer the best in wine racking and custom wine cellars, and we are thrilled about the opportunity to bring spectacular saunas and steam rooms into the home.”

Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas provides trade and consumers numerous choices in high-end wine rack wine cellars as well as modular racking options. Utilizing only the best materials for racking available, Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas has three wine cellar categories to choose from: Classic Collection Custom Wine Cellars featuring five stunning stock woods; Signature Collection Wine Cellars offering hardwood cellars in three décor themes; Private Reserve Collection Wine Cellars affording customers the option of completely customized cellars. And for those that prefer to do all of the creative work themselves, Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas offers modular racking. This racking is available for purchase on-line and is partially constructed in various designs. Modular racking can be mixed and matched and it is easy to assemble, making it a fabulous solution for wine storage in almost any space.

To accommodate the growing popularity of saunas and steam baths, Apex Wine Cellars and Saunas offers everything needed to install these luxuries in the comfort of the home and/or business. Both European and Standard pre-cut saunas are available and can be designed to fit any room utilizing free CAD design services.
