The pantry includes a first supporter for a wine glass, a second supporter for a wine bottle, a space defined between the first and second supporters, a first outlet at a front of the space, and a second outlet at a lateral side of the space. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A refrigerator, comprising: a cabinet having a wine storage chamber; a door that selectively closes the wine storage chamber; a pantry provided in the wine storage chamber, the pantry comprising: a first supporter provided at an upper portion of the pantry to support a wine glass, and a second supporter provided at a lower portion of the pantry to support a wine bottle; a rail guide provided on both sides of an inner surface of the cabinet; and a draw-out rail installed at the pantry to be movable forward and rearward on the rail guide, wherein the pantry defines: (i) a space between the first supporter and the second supporter, the space being configured to accommodate at least a portion of the wine glass, (ii) a first outlet located at a front portion of the space and configured to pass the wine bottle therethrough, and (iii) a second outlet located at a lateral portion of the space and configured to pass the wine bottle therethrough, wherein the first supporter and the second supporter are configured, based on the door being open, to be withdrawn from the wine storage chamber, and wherein the first outlet and the second outlet are configured, based on the second supporter being withdrawn from the wine storage chamber, to be exposed to an outside of the refrigerator to thereby allow a user to take the wine bottle in and out of the second supporter through the first outlet and the second outlet. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, wherein the first supporter comprises: an opening into which the wine glass is inserted; and a guide portion extended from the opening to guide movement of the wine glass. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The refrigerator according to claim 2, wherein the opening is formed at an end of the first supporter. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, wherein the first supporter comprises a support surface recessed downward from a top portion of the pantry to support at least a portion of the wine glass. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The refrigerator according to claim 4, wherein the first supporter further comprises a plurality of support surfaces arranged in a line. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, wherein the wine bottle is received on a surface of the second supporter. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, wherein the second supporter comprises a plurality of second supporters arranged in a longitudinal direction. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, further comprising: at least one input unit into which a command is inputted depending on a kind of wine stored in the wine storage chamber; a memory unit that memorizes a present temperature value corresponding to the command inputted by the input unit; and a display unit that displays the command inputted by the input unit or the present temperature value memorized in the memory unit. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The refrigerator according to claim 1, further comprising: a temperature sensing unit that senses a temperature of the wine storage chamber; a cool air supplying unit that is formed in the wine storage chamber and selectively supplies cool air; and a control unit that allows the cool air supplying unit to be selectively opened by comparing a preset temperature value with a current temperature sensed by the temperature sensing unit. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The refrigerator according to claim 9, further comprising: a heater that supplies heat to the wine storage chamber based on the preset temperature being higher than the current temperature of the wine storage chamber.
