I moved my wine today

I noticed the shelf upon which I’ve been storing my wine has started to, um, sag. So I’ve moved them all into a closet - which is probably a better place to store them anyway. During the move, the bottles stopped to pose for a photograph, and I counted up the bottles and did an inventory. Because I’d never really done this before, there were a couple of pleasant surprises… including how I’d managed to amass so much Blackjack Block 6 Shiraz. Granted, I’m a big fan of their wines (including the cheaper but oh-so-drinkable Chortle’s Edge), but I had no idea I had so much Block 6.

Because, gentle reader, I know you care, here’s a list of what’s in my wine closet:

• 2x Blackjack Shiraz 2006* 4x Blackjack Shiraz 2007 (not pictured)* 1x Blackjack Shiraz Block 6 2003 (!)* 5x Blackjack Shiraz Block 6 2005* 2x Blackjack Shiraz Block 6 2006* 4x Blackjack Shiraz Block 6 2007 (not pictured)* 1x Blackjack Shiraz Major’s Line 2005* 4x Blackjack Shiraz Major’s Line 2006* 4x Blackjack Shiraz Major’s Line 2007 (not pictured)* 2x Mitchelton Shiraz 2001* 1x Mitchelton Crescent Shiraz 1998 (!!)* 1x Domaine A Cabernet Sauvignon 2001 (!!)* 1x Domaine A Cabernet Sauvignon 2000 (!!!)* 1x Buller Beverford Shiraz 2001* 1x Buller Limited Reserve Rutherglen Shiraz 2001* 1x Pepperjack Shiraz 2004 (before they started to suck)* 1x Petaringa Understudy Cabernet Petit Verdot 2003* 1x Fortant de France Vin de Pays D’Oc Cabernet Sauvignon 1997 (either fantastic or total rubbish)* 1x Gehringer Brothers Minus 9 Ehrenfelser Icewine 2006* 3x Remote controls NV (not drinkable)* 1x Harry Potter and The End Of The Series (not mine)

I suppose I ought to open some of this up sometime.
