Can anyone tell me the weight of an OWC containing 24 half bottles of VP?

Derek,

I normally figure about 20 kg for a full OWC, because that's what's printed on the side of some of my Bordeaux cases.

But ... as you have halves, and as port bottles might weigh more than standard claret bottles, I'd expect the weight to go up slightly. Say between 20 and 25 kg?
