I am a big fan of Chapoutier Barbe Rac. I have four bottles of the 2001 stashed away. When would you suggest drinking the first one? A lot of 2001 Rhone's that I have tried seem to need some time in the cellar.

Joe, Do the boxes that you order hold bottles that are 3.5" wide at the bottom? I have a lot of Pinot/Syrah bottles that are a wide at the bottom and am having trouble finding boxes that will work for this size bottles. If you do I would definitely be interested.

Thanks for the suggestion--will have to head over there this weekend. A specific Total Wine location or do all of them do this?

I have a bunch of wine that I need to move in to offsite storage. I am looking for some cardboard boxes with dividers that are relatively new and in good shape. Almost all of my boxes have styro and they will take up way too much space in my locker. Do retailers typically give these things away--or do they re use them all for their customers. Any idea where else I can get these for a good price? Need some boxes for bordeaux, rhone, burgundy, and "pax" sized bottles. Any help would be much appreciated.

I have successfully filled my Vintage Keeper wine cellar and need more storage space. Unfortunately there is no more room in my apartment for another unit. Anyone know of anywhere else who offers storage besides the Wine Rack? It is a little pricey. I am thinking of carting it Philadelphia but was going to check to see if there is something closer that is affordable.
