I've seen wine cellars in original fruit cellars.  I'd guess that the conditions
are similar: steady cool temps.

Incidentally, I'd love to see either photos or a floor plan, even if crude,
of your house.

Your description of "three separate cellars" stirred my curiosity!  Are
they connected, or do you have to enter each from a separate wing
of the house?
