Wine Cellar
Jim Patterson, our cellar master has updated the cellar list, which is available on the blog spot, see LINK. He makes some interesting comments as follows:- I thought it may be interesting to compare the changes in the Society's Wine Cellar since 1993 (My first Cellar List!) Compared to my recent Stock take: Australian Whites are up from 136 to 148 (a 9% increase) Australian Reds down from 1139 to 764 (a 33% decrease) Imported Whites up from 160 to 240 (a 50% increase) Imported Reds down from 369 to 290 (a 21% decrease) Fortified Wines down from 191 to 138 (a decrease of 28%) Sparkling Wines up from 50 to 80 (an increase of 60%) The total wine stock has reduced from 2045 bottles (170 dozen) to 1660 bottles (138 dozen) - a reduction of 19%. This as a good illustration of changing trends and the influence of different Cellar masters over that period. Thanks, Jim
