Alexandre CLERCH - Co-Founder of LeCavist
At LeCavist, we believe in marrying the timeless elegance of French craftsmanship with the vibrant spirit of Australia. As a French expatriate living in this beautiful country, I was inspired to bring a touch of my homeland to Australian homes, particularly in the realm of wine appreciation.
Growing up in France, I was surrounded by the rich culture of winemaking and the art of cellar storage. The allure of savoring a perfectly aged wine, carefully preserved in an underground cellar, is a memory deeply ingrained in my soul. When I arrived in Australia, I noticed a growing appreciation for wine, yet I also recognised the challenges posed by the Australian climate.
Driven by my love for wine and a desire to share the art of proper wine storage, I founded LeCavist with a mission to provide Australian wine enthusiasts with the perfect solution: wine fridges inspired by the underground cellars of traditional French homes.
Wine is not just a beverage; it's a journey, an experience that evolves over time. Proper storage is essential to protect the integrity of each bottle and unlock its full potential. In Australia's warm climate, maintaining the ideal temperature and humidity levels is paramount to safeguarding your investment and ensuring every sip is as delightful as the first.
With over 35 years of experience specializing in wine fridges, LeCavist brings unparalleled expertise and innovation to the Australian market. Our team of experts is dedicated to ensuring that each wine fridge meets the highest standards of quality, performance, and reliability.
Our wine fridges are meticulously crafted with the highest standards of quality and attention to detail. Each design is inspired by the rustic charm of French cellars, offering a blend of elegance and functionality that seamlessly integrates into any Australian home.
Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur or just beginning to explore the world of wine, LeCavist invites you to join us on this journey. Discover the perfect wine fridge for your needs and budget, and experience the joy of preserving and enjoying your favorite wines in style. Cheers to a shared passion for wine and the art of living well.

Let me start of by saying the customer service has been fantastic, very punctual and supportive through the delivery process.
The fridge itself also seems to meet all my expectations regarding quality and is whisper quiet.
However…
The problem with this fridge is the internal shelf spacing. If you have nothing but Bordeaux and Riesling style bottles it would
Be great.
But it certainly does not support burgundy style Bottles very well at all.
The construction of the shelves and the spacing of the slides means you have to waste two whole spots in order to accomodate a single row of burgundy style bottles. And unless you only have one style or producer of the same bottle, attempting to stack them neatly to maximise the storage is a nightmare and turns into an unstable ugly mess.
If LECAVIST could make a wire rack shelf for this model to suit these thicker bottles and lower the overall height whilst laying down on the shelf so that all shelf slides could be used I would have no problem with buying them and rating this a 5 star fridge. However as it is now, it’s a poorly thought out design and wasted potential.
Nice fridge for the price. Hope it lasts longer than our Vintec (5yrs)
Lots of space for bottles but the control is a bit basic and the light on the control panel cannot be dimmed down or turned off. It can be noisy at times but in general, if not in a quiet area, it is acceptable. It is more for storage than for display. I would have liked the glass holder to be removable.
Have not had the fridge long enough to assess quality as yet
