San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is a noted wine connoisseur. He’s co-owner of Oregon’s A to Z Wineworks, and has a personal collection of more than 3,000 bottles.

Naturally, the basketball-loving oenophile built a wine cellar to match his tastes—600 square feet and constructed with reclaimed Jerusalem stone, it is a temperature-controlled shrine to wine. The listing calls it "an avid wine enthusiast's dream cellar."

Earlier this month, Popovich listed the wine cellar, and the 8,700-square-foot mansion attached to it, for $4.5 million.

Located about a half-hour north of AT&T Center in San Antonio, the four-bedroom, six-bathroom home is big in every way. The foyer and living room both have two-story ceilings. The living room has a bank of large picture windows looking out on the backyard and pool. The room has an open balcony, and is bookended by a fireplace and media center.

The chef's kitchen is luxurious but practical, with an island, stainless-steel appliances, and tiled backsplash. Listing photos show Popovich turned the kitchen’s breakfast nook into a sitting area.

Upstairs, there’s a large entertainment room with a pool table and wet bar, surrounded by framed photographs and newspaper clippings from Popovich's 22-year career as the team’s head coach. Similar memorabilia adorn the home gym.

The master bedroom has an octagonal tray ceiling, and the master bathroom features separate vanities and a stand-alone tub.

Elsewhere, there’s an elevator, wraparound balcony, barbecue, and infinity pool. The 2.6-acre property is located in a gated community.

Popovich, 69, took over as head coach of the Spurs in 1996, pulling the team out of a four-year slump that threatened to tank the young franchise. He’s the only coach to bring the team to the NBA Finals, in 1999, 2003, 2005, 2007, 2013, and 2014—taking home the trophy five out of six times.

Popovich’s wife, Erin, died in April at the age of 67. She's also survived by their two children and two grandchildren.
