The invention claimed is: 1. A bottle rack comprising a width (B) and length (L), a number (N) of receivers (2) each extending parallel to the length (L) and arranged adjacent one another in the direction of the width (B) for receiving and storing bottles (20) in alignment parallel to the length (L), wherein a number (N-N1) of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) are stationary and a number (N1) of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) each comprise a pivotal portion (3) having a length (L1>L) less than length (L) of the bottle rack (1) and are pivotal to a downward angular position relative to the adjacent, stationary receivers (2), such that bottles (22) supported upon said respective pivotal portions (3) are presented in sloping position, additionally comprising a latching device (9, 10) arranged to fix the downwardly pivotal portions and stationary receivers (2, 3) to one another without downward pivoting of the pivotal portions (3), and wherein the latching device comprises a displaceable fixing spigot which can be displaced from either a stationary part into a downwardly pivotal part of the bottle rack (1) or from the downwardly pivotal part into the stationary part of the bottle rack (1). 2. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 1, wherein the number (N1) of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) each having the pivotal portion (3) is one-half total number of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) of the bottle rack (1). 3. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 1, wherein the number (N1) of the receivers (2) each having the pivotal portion (3) is 1. 4. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 1, comprising transverse strip (6) which includes the downwardly pivotal portions (3) of the receivers (2), wherein the transverse strip (6) is arranged in a front region of the bottle rack (1) to support the sloping bottles (22). 5. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 1, wherein the pivotal part includes, in an outer region, at least one support spigot which is positioned for insertion into a support groove or for placing onto a support rib which is arranged lower than a support groove or rib in or on which the stationary part of the bottle rack (1) is supported. 6. A bottle storage device comprising at least one bottle rack (1) in accordance with claim 1. 7. A wine storage apparatus comprising at least one bottle storage device in accordance with claim 6. 8. A cooler cabinet comprising at least one bottle rack in accordance with claim 1. 9. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 1, wherein each said receiver (2) comprising the pivotal portion (3) also comprises a stationary portion (2), and an axis (8) positioned thereon and extending in the width direction (B), such that the pivotal portion (3) is directly mounted upon the adjacent stationary portion (2) to pivot about the axis (8). 10. A bottle rack, comprising a width (B) and length (L), a number (N) of receivers (2) each extending parallel to the length (L) and arranged adjacent one another in the direction of the width (B) for receiving and storing bottles (20) in alignment parallel to the length (L), wherein a number (N-N1) of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) are stationary and a number (N1) of adjacently-arranged receivers (2) each comprise a pivotal portion (3) having a length (L1>L) less than length (L) of the bottle rack and are pivotal to a downward angular position relative to the adjacent, stationary receivers (2), such that bottles (22) supported upon said respective pivotal portions (3) are presented in sloping position, a separately-mounted central strip (4) upon the bottle rack (1) extending beneath a pivoting axis (8) of a downwardly pivotal part of the bottle rack (1), both the separately-mounted central strip (4) and pivoting axis (8) extending in the width direction (B), and the central strip (4) being chamfered such that the downwardly pivoted portions (3) of the receivers (2) are supported against the central strip (4) in the sloping position. 11. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 10, comprising a latching device (9, 10) arranged to fix the downwardly pivotal portions and stationary receivers (2, 3) to one another without downward pivoting of the pivotal portions (3). 12. A bottle rack, comprising a width (B) and length (L), a number (N) of receivers (2) each extending parallel to the length (L) and arranged adjacent one another in the direction of the width (B) for receiving and storing bottles (20) in alignment parallel to the length (L), wherein a number (N-N1) of the adjacently-arranged receivers (2) are stationary and a number (N1) of adjacently-arranged receivers (2) each comprise a pivotal portion (3) having a length (L1>L) less than length (L) of the bottle rack and are pivotal to a downward angular position relative to the adjacent, stationary receivers (2), such that bottles (22) supported upon said respective pivotal portions (3) are presented in sloping position, each said receiver (2) comprising the pivotal portion (3) also comprises a stationary portion (2), and an axis (8) positioned thereon and extending in the width direction (B) such that the pivotal portion (3) is directly mounted upon the adjacent stationary portion (2) to pivot about the axis (8), a separately-mounted central strip (4) upon the bottle rack (1) extending beneath the pivoting axis (8) of a downwardly pivotal part (3) of the bottle rack (1) and extending in the width direction (B), and the central strip (4) being chamfered such that the downwardly pivoted portions (3) of the receivers (2) are supported against the central strip (4) in the sloping position. 13. A bottle rack in accordance with claim 12, comprising a latching device (9, 10) arranged to fix the downwardly pivotal portions and stationary receivers (2, 3) to one another without downward pivoting of the pivotal portions (3).
