Well the counting of the plonk is over, each bott accounted for by vigneron, name, colour, price and year. All 700 plus of em.
Phew!

I'n NOT doing this again, I swear from now on each time we drink one the spreadsheet will be updated!!

Had to throw 12 botts away. We have known about this for a while now, and they aren't the first.
A vigneron we knew and trusted for many years, who once didn't make us pay for months cos his machine bruck down but still let us take a boot ful of wine away. Well just before Brexit was going to bite we got ahead and bought tons of wine from all over the place, and from him we bought about 20 cases of his very best stuff and his not quite best stuff. What we didn't realise was that they needed drinking within the next year and a half. Being good stuff we thought it would age very well. It didn't so we had to chuck about half of it away, yet we are still drinking the cheap stuff we bought from him at the same time.

Say "Yay" for sulphites.

You could say he wasn't dishonest, but he didn't say anything like "Are you sure you can drink all this before it goes off?" He just sold it to us.
Needless to say we haven't darkened his winery's door again. Pleased to say that none of the rest has gone that way.

Still there are some interesting "bin ends" in the fridge and around awaiting our pleasure!!

Enjoy the rest of the day peeps!!!
:):):)
I would empty the rain water tank and use it for your wine with that amount 😯😯😯
