A wine glass rack holds stemmed glasses upside down by their bases, under a cabinet, on a wall or on the counter, so they take less shelf space and stay dust-free. The right one depends on where you have room: an under-cabinet rack for the kitchen, a wall-mounted rack for a bar or dining room, or a countertop rack if you mostly need somewhere to dry glasses. Our overall pick is the Oenophilia Under Cabinet Stemware Rack, which holds up to nine glasses for about $20. Below are five racks compared on what their makers publish.
How we chose
We don’t test racks. Every capacity, size, material and mounting detail here comes from the maker’s own product page, opened in October 2026, and is listed in the Sources box. We picked current racks from makers that sell wine storage, and covered the three ways people store stemware: under a cabinet, on a wall and on the counter. Prices are rough bands from the makers’ own US stores in October 2026, never Amazon prices. Our full method is on how we rate wine and accessories.
Wine glass racks compared
| Wine glass rack | Glasses (maker) | Mounting | Material | Size (maker) | Price band (Oct 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oenophilia Under Cabinet Stemware Rack | Up to 9 | Under a cabinet | Stainless steel | Not stated | Around $20 |
| VintageView W Series Stemware Rack | 2, 4 or 6 | Wall | Steel | 13 in wide; 5.75–12.5 in deep | $46 to $73 |
| Oenophilia Wine Bar Wall Rack | 8 (plus 6 bottles) | Wall | Not stated (gunmetal finish) | 27.5 x 9 x 10.5 in | Around $88 |
| Oenophilia Fusion 16 | 8 (plus 1 decanter) | Countertop | Chrome finish | 21.5 x 14 x 12 in | Around $44 |
| VintageView Vino Series Stemware 2 | 2 | Wall | Aluminum | About 8 x 2.5 x 7.5 in | $16 to $23 |
The best wine glass racks
Oenophilia Under Cabinet Stemware Rack
Who it’s for: kitchens where the cabinets are full but the space under them is empty.
Key specs (Oenophilia):
- Holds up to nine stems.
- Mounts to the underside of a cabinet; mounting hardware included.
- Stainless steel.
The trade-off: Oenophilia doesn’t publish the rack’s dimensions or the largest base it takes, so measure the space under your cabinet and the foot of your biggest glass before ordering. We’d also avoid hanging glasses over the stove.
At about $20 on Oenophilia’s site in October 2026, it is the simplest way to free up a shelf. In our view, it’s the first rack to try in a kitchen. Check the Oenophilia under-cabinet stemware rack on Amazon.
VintageView W Series Stemware Rack
Who it’s for: a home bar or wine wall where glasses should be on display, and where you might add more racks later.
Key specs (VintageView):
- Holds 2 glasses (single deep), 4 (double deep) or 6 (triple deep).
- Takes standard stemmed glasses up to 4 3/8 inches across.
- 13 inches wide and 4 inches tall (11 inches with glasses in place); 5.75, 9 or 12.5 inches deep.
- Steel, in five finishes; installs on drywall, wood and other surfaces, on its own or above or below a W Series bottle column.
- Connects side by side to more racks; VintageView says each extension adds 50% capacity.
The trade-off: capacity per dollar is lower than the under-cabinet rack. You’re paying for a modular system that lines up with VintageView’s wall-mounted bottle racks.
It sold for $46 to $73 on VintageView’s site in October 2026, depending on depth and finish. We’d choose it for a bar wall. Check the VintageView W Series stemware rack on Amazon.
Oenophilia Wine Bar Wall Rack
Who it’s for: a small apartment or kitchen nook that needs bottle and glass storage in one piece.
Key specs (Oenophilia):
- Holds six bottles and eight stems.
- A top shelf for extra storage.
- 27.5 inches wide, 9 deep, 10.5 tall; gunmetal finish (the feature list on the same page also says metallic silver).
- Wall-mounted.
The trade-off: six bottles is a small collection, and a wall rack gives them no protection from a warm room. It’s for the bottles you’ll open soon.
It sold for about $88 on Oenophilia’s site in October 2026. Check the Oenophilia wine bar wall rack on Amazon.
Oenophilia Fusion 16 Stemware Rack
Who it’s for: people who hand-wash good glasses and need somewhere to dry them, more than a permanent home for them.
Key specs (Oenophilia):
- Holds eight stems and one decanter; Oenophilia says hanging the glasses lets air circulate and prevents water spots.
- 21.5 inches wide, 14 deep, 12 tall; chrome finish.
- Rubber-tipped legs that fold flat for storage.
The trade-off: despite the “16” in the name, Oenophilia’s own description says eight glasses plus a decanter. It also takes up counter space while it’s open.
It sold for about $44 on Oenophilia’s site in October 2026. Our pick if you own a decanter, since it dries one along with the glasses. Check the Oenophilia Fusion stemware rack on Amazon.
VintageView Vino Series Stemware 2
Who it’s for: anyone who wants two good glasses on show, or a few pairs spaced along a wine wall.
Key specs (VintageView):
- Holds two wine glasses (most sizes) on slim rods that stick out from the wall.
- About 8 by 2.5 by 7.5 inches on a wood or stud mount, 8 by 3.25 by 8 inches on drywall with collars.
- Aluminum, in five finishes; drywall collars are required for drywall, and the mounting hardware is included.
- Lifetime warranty.
The trade-off: two glasses per piece. For a full set of eight you’d mount four, and drill a lot of holes.
It sold for $16 to $23 on VintageView’s site in October 2026. Check the VintageView Vino Series stemware rack on Amazon.
What to look for in a wine glass rack
Capacity, and why it varies
Glass counts are approximate. A rack holds glasses by the base, so wide Burgundy or Bordeaux bowls need more room than narrow white-wine glasses, and the same channel fits fewer of them. Oenophilia says “up to” nine; VintageView gives a maximum glass diameter of 4 3/8 inches. Measure the foot of your largest glass and the space you have before you buy.
Mounting
- Under-cabinet racks screw into the bottom of a wall cabinet. Check that the cabinet floor is thick enough for the screws.
- Wall-mounted racks need proper anchors or a stud. VintageView requires collars for drywall on its Vino Series.
- Countertop racks need no tools, but use counter space.
- Ceiling-hung racks over an island look striking, but the one we found from Wine Enthusiast is discontinued, so none made this list.
Materials
The makers list stainless steel for Oenophilia’s under-cabinet rack, steel for the VintageView W Series and aluminum for the Vino Series; the Fusion 16 has a chrome finish. If you prefer the look of a wooden rack, we’d keep it away from the sink and dishwasher steam.
Storing glasses well
Wine Enthusiast’s glass storage guide gives a few simple rules. Make sure glasses are clean, polished and above all dry before you put them away. On shelves, sturdy glasses with a thick rim can stand upside down, but delicate thin-rimmed glasses are safer upright. And leave half an inch to an inch between glasses so they don’t knock together. A hanging rack solves the last two by design, which is why we’d use one for any glasses you care about.
Tip: Stemless glasses and tumblers can’t hang. If your set is mostly stemless, a shelf or cabinet is the better home.

Frequently asked questions
Is it better to hang wine glasses or store them in a cabinet?
Both work. Hanging racks hold glasses upside down by the base, which keeps dust out of the bowl and, as Wine Enthusiast notes, fits more glasses into one place. In a cabinet, Wine Enthusiast suggests leaving half an inch to an inch between glasses.
Should wine glasses be stored upside down?
On a hanging rack they always are. On shelves, Wine Enthusiast says sturdy glasses with a thicker rim or foot can go upside down, but delicate thin-rimmed glasses are safer standing right side up.
How many glasses fit on an under-cabinet wine glass rack?
It depends on the rack and on the size of your glasses' bases. Oenophilia's under-cabinet rack holds up to nine stems; racks with more channels hold more.
Do wine glass racks fit stemless glasses?
No. Stemware racks hold glasses by the base and stem, so stemless glasses and tumblers need a shelf or cabinet instead.
