Chloe, I am sure the item you link to is not that which is sought.
There are a couple of different styles of 'label view' racks
I think the rack sought may look essentially like a 2 x 4 with a series of inch diameter holes running down the center line of the wood. It looks nicer than that but imagine that 2 x 4 with all the rough corners shaped off, then stained and highly polished. Now we're talking furniture. (Not really "old world" tho')
The bottles are supported only by their necks. When you face this rack, you face the bottoms of the bottle.
A quick glance around the 'net did not reveal anyone selling large units of this type, but that was just a quick glance. You probably want to search for these. I know they were being marketed.
I must say tho' that the ones I saw marketed some few years ago were IMO very much over-priced. I wouldn't be too surprised if the companies producing them had not found sufficient market for $300 items to store 12 bottles of wine.
There is another type that is essentially two flats of metal one of which has small hooks mounted, the other large hooks. these are mounted in pairs, the large hook supports the "body" of the bottle, the smaller the neck.
beve, I notice that you say " you lean against a wall".
Of course, you would never want to put your wine in any kind of storage that was not secure from being toppled over. If you are going to lean such a thing against a wall, displaying 6 or 10 precious bottles, you better secure it to the wall.
