Storing Wine and Cigars Together?

Just wondering if anyone stores these two together? The environments are similar in humidity and temperature. I'm just starting to get into Wine and would like to set up a small humidor / Wine Cellar.

Any input would appreciated.

Thanks in Advance,

Munt!
 
I have been looking at putting a combo wine cellar/ humidor in my basement for a while. The problem is that no single component works for both currently. Stuff for wine storage is a little cool, and allows a little more humidity fluctuation than optimal cigar storage. What I have been planning is to build the cellar, keep it just a touch warmer than recommended for wines (about 60), and within that, build a separate cabinet with beads to keep the humidity a little higher and more consistent. Now just waiting to start the basement remodel to get it done.

Edit: And the high end stuff that allows any humidity control with wine is pricey. I may end up pushing 5k to get mine done, and that's including the construction in with the rest of the basement remodel.
