A building or structure where wine is stored, aged, or kept before being sold.
Compound of 'wine' (from Latin 'vinum') and 'house' (from Old English 'hus'). Common term for wine storage facilities, particularly in wine-producing regions.
Traditional winehouses, especially in Europe, are designed with specific temperatures and humidity to perfectly age wine—some historic winehouses in Bordeaux have been storing the same families' wines for over 300 years, creating underground kingdoms of liquid history!
