I've been compiling a list of the best new wine racks for the past two years, and this year I thought I'd do something a little different and highlight vintage designs (in addition to an expanded list of new and easily available racks). Some of these older pieces are no longer in production and you have to hunt for them, but it's a thrill when you find the perfect piece. Here's a mix of vintage, new, and DIY options — Enjoy!
VINTAGE WINE RACKS
Clear Acrylic Wine Rack on Etsy: If you're on a budget, Etsy is a good place to search for vintage wine racks below $50. This one is currently available from CathodeBlue for $39.
Paul McCobb Drinks Cart & Wine Rack from Surfing Cowboys: I don't usually post items wihtout a direct link to purchase, but I had to include this amazing vintage Paul McCobb drinks cart and wine rack, which was available at Surfing Cowboys but has since sold. You can sometimes find these through antique dealers, vintage aggregator sites like 1stdibs, or through eBay.
Paul McCobb Wine Rack from Orange: This vintage Paul McCobb wine rack IS currently available through LA-based antique dealer, Orange.
French Vintage Wine Rack at Maison de Kristine: This vintage wire rack is a cool design if you need a LOT of wine storage and you've got a large space. It's currently marked down to $307.50.
Birch Bentwood Wine Rack from Assemblage: A nice mid-century design from Chicago antique store, Assemblage, $475.
Swedish Birch and Rosewood Wine Rack from Hi and Lo Modern: These honeycomb rosewood wine racks turn up a lot in antique and thrift stores. This one is available at Hi and Lo Modern for $245.
NEW WINE RACKS
Vintage View Wine Racks: These are the ones I use in my home. Called Vintage View Racks, they're a British creation and can be expanded to hold as many bottles as you want.
Houdini Wine Rack at the MoMA Store: This design folds flat, holds four bottles, and sells at MoMA for $16.
NapaStyle Single & A-Frame Riddling Racks: This rack isn't for everyone — you'd need a TON of space for starters — but it's a cool A-frame design that would look great in a giant California kitchen. Available through Napa Style for $800.
Felted Wine Rack by Etcetera Media at Horne: Here's another design that folds flat for storage, $40 at Horne.
Wine Rack by Metropolitan Produce: This one's actually a protoype by Brooklyn-based architects/designers Metropolitan Produce, but I included it because it's such a simple, beautiful, and space-saving design.
Spiral Wine Cellars: These are just super cool if you have the need for a full cellar.
DIY WINE RACKS
DIY Wine Rack Idea from Framework Design: Blogged by Regina, this is a very, very nice solution that can be copied, but be CAREFUL.
Built-In Mailing Tube Wine Rack from Readymade (no good link): Who can argue with DIY that looks like Shiguru Ban?
CARRYOVERS FROM THE BEST OF 2009 LIST
Classic 12-Bottle Hardwood Wine Rack: These are expandable, and we've used these many times with a dab of glue in the joints.
Shesham Wine Rack from Crate & Barrel: Love the wood and these can be wall mounted and expanded to cover as much space you you've got.
Cellar Wine Rack from CB2: I really liked their metal take on this classic four triangle design.
Float Wall Shelf by Modern Cellar: I liked this for the wood and the fact that it displayed single bottles nicely at the same time (not for those with cats or children).
SPORADIC Wall Panel: Just supercool.
CRU Wine Rack from UMBRA: While I'm not usually fond of this sort of standalone, table-top rack, I love that these can be wall mounted and added together to make one big rack.

I recently bought the felted wine rack as I was looking for a small cheap rack that could fit in a small space above our kitchen cabinets. (Etcetera was closing their Etsy shop and I got it for way cheaper than $40.) While I like the simplicity of the design and the fact that its made from renewable/recyclable materails and it does it's job, it's not the best thing out there. My biggest issue with it is if you want a bottle from the bottom row, you have to take out all the bottles from the top row first and shuffle bottles around so it doesn't collapse on itself.
Other than that it's a great little storage solution.
It would be nice to have a selection of interesting wine racks that hold between 60 and 100 bottles.
I mean, there is no point to a rack that holds 12 or fewer.
check this wine rack, designed by Ashley Hall & Matthew Kavanagh, produced by the extinct BART DESIGN ITALIA:

@Amazonww- Actually, I can never find the need for more than 3 bottles at a time, and I can scarce afford to just buy bottles and have them on hand. Translation: what I buy, I drink! I have a six bottle holder that sometimes has liquor or mixers on one side because it's never full of wine, so ther's still a place for the "12 or fewer" holders.
Maxwell -- those Paul McCobb wine racks/carts that are not by Paul McCobb, though the mis-attribution is very common. They are actually designed by Arthur Umanoff for Shaver Howard.
I like the Infinity Bottle Rack by Kartell:

I'm not a wine drinker, but my dream house will have a wall mounted riddling rack. I love them.
Love that Riddling table, it's gorgeous.
the eva solo wine rack is also a good one. i have one and it works great.

I was going to say: the wine racks are Arthur Umanoff imported by Raymor. They are very McCobb-like though. :)
This is the best wine rack I've ever seen:
The Wine Spine, by Delia.
http://www.edelia.com/catalog/winestorage/IM-64
I own it, in fact. It holds 13 bottles, it takes up very little floor space, and it's a work of art!
P.S. I don't work there. I just love their stuff!
i love the vintage racks, such ease and timeless design. i'd have to add d.e. sellers wine nest to the list too - looks great with or without your favorite vintage.
