I have quality new cabinets w/glass doors that I use for wine glasses. they always have the smell and taste of either the wood or finish. I have put spacers on doors so they are open a slight bit, but doesn’t help.

Time will solve this problem but in the mean time, you could put the glasses elsewhere, wash them before use, or install an under-hung rack for them and permanently move them to the bottom of a cabinet.
Two things.
Make sure the glasses are 100% dry before putting them in the cabinet.
Put several small containers of baking soda in the cabinet to absorb the odors. It sounds like your cabinet maker used a new type of finish. This is usually not a problem. I recomend using solid oak for wine cabinets.
How about some self liner/macktack?…That would probably help.
