Does it have to be a Vinotemp?

Yes, come to think about it - cigars have a rather strong smell. Might be enough to make it's way through the cork and into the wine. While that might not be so bad for a Cab Sav, it would be pretty nasty in a sav blanc.

Sigh. The sell to my significant other was that this was for wine.

I have that problem... the cigar aroma seeps right through the cardboard box and into my premium wines.

I have the opposite problem to worry about. Red wine flavours tainting my glass top Cohibo's.

Makes me wonder why they are discontinuing the 28 bottle unit since they sell them out every time they stock them

Stay away from compressor based units.
