A wine cellar

If its down below it'd be a wine cellar, but if its on an upper lever I'd call it the wine room or the wine pantry! I don't think there is a name for it except for wine cellar, but that doesn't make much since to call something a cellar if it isn't actually in/a cellar.

First, just make sure the bottles are close enough to horizontal to keep the corks wet, to prevent them from drying out, and shrinking, and letting air pass to the wine.
Second: the temperature should be between 55-57F plus a relative humidity in the range of 60-70%
Third: should be stored in a vibration-free and dark environment. While low incandescent lighting is okay, direct sunlight and even fluorescent lighting can destroy a wine over time.
If you have a cabinet located in a fresh-cool environment, it';s OK for wine storage, but if it's in the kitchen then it's a NO-NO.
