Im proudly announcing that today i broke the magic 100 bottles barrier.
I got today 6 bottles of Barao de Vilar Colheita 1997 making a total of 101 bottles of port.
Conveniently - and completely unprompted by me - my wife was looking at the Eurocave cellars in one of our recently received catalogs and suggested that we could get one!
Even more shocking was that the one she was looking at was one of the "furniture" pieces that could go in the living room or study. She's a keeper!
I think those (the 283, as I recall) are probably too large for our house, though, so I'd probably step down to one without a glass door or display shelves and just keep it in the garage. (Besides, those hold more bottles. )
While not yet at 100, I am approaching that mark rapidly. And the wife has discovered the breeding capabilities of the bottles - although I don't think she'll be ready to jump on board the Eurocave idea just yet... :?
