1. 9+ zoned wine selections in 9 zones Securing an overwhelming gap through granular curation The House of Shinsegae Wine Cellar curates 400 pyeong of space in 9 zones
An overview of the HOSS wine cellar
- 1. zoned by sparkling/red/white, then by
- 2. old Continent / New Continent
- 3. sub-countries within continents
- following these three steps is the basics.
however, I was impressed that HOS’s wine cellar goes beyond these distinctions and digs deeper for items that they specialize in, subdividing them into product groups like ‘3. Bordeaux 4. Burgundy 5. France 8. USA 9. Collectors Club’.
and each of the nine product groups is divided into nine zones, so it has the strength of being quite intuitive to index while looking at nearly 5,000 wines.

overall, the design of the space is quite sophisticated, and I found it pleasantly connected, as if I were walking through a wine museum, but also experiencing a small, well-organized library or personal study.
still, there are details about the sale scattered throughout the store to create a sense of urgency.
tables labeled “Star Producers” and “Special Offers” are spaced by zoning, and the ultra-expensive vineyards are a reminder to customers to open their wallets.
in the case of the Bordeaux, Burgundy, and French wine sections, which are relatively deeper in depth among the sections 1 through 9, unlike the sections 7 through 9, the store layout can also be characterized by intentional closure to enhance product immersion
spirit Zone 1 specializing in whisky
the No. 1 Spirit Zone, which specializes in whiskey, has a completely different space design from the other spaces, visually differentiating it from wine.It was also impressive to see a separate section for the expensive and limited edition products of the #Gordon&McPhail Private Collection, which costs 100 million a bottle. Popular brands also have their own sections to increase the concentration of products.
aPEX COLLECTION + gourmet restaurant emphasizing privacy
the development of a private cellar and mariage experience for high-end customers
the House of Shinsegae wine cellar is also home to another special area, the APEX COLLECTION, which is curated for the most discriminating customers at the top of the wine world. This is a high-end cellar that features extremely expensive and rare wines, so it is essential to be accompanied by an in-store staff member
the APEX COLLECTION, an unmarked space with nine sections, exudes a sense of luxury even more than the spaces outside
while the wines outside were in the price range of hundreds of thousands to millions of won, the wines in this space were ‘ultra-rare’ wines with a suffix of legend as the name of each category, so there were many ‘ultra-rare’ wines in the basic price range of millions to tens of millions of won
here, it’s cheap crystal lol
Now, the most expensive wine in the world is a series from Leroux, not DRC… 200 million a bottle Last but not least, I’m going to organize the hotspots into a series. Enjoy!
