Most drunk wine

Post by Stuart »

What is the single wine (not vintage specific) that you have drunk more bottles of than any other?
Mine would be probably be Wynn's Black Label Cabernet - beacuse it is a coolish climate cabernet of outstanding quality and consistency.
Anyone else?

I started drinking reds on this label with the 1970, 71 & 72 vintages and haven't stopped having it as a regular ever since. I'm confident they'll overcome recent viticultural difficulties to put this back where it belongs.

I was thinking just the other day about how wines like the 1990 and 19991 Black Label were my house wine for some time in the mid 90s, reckon I drank my way through about three to four cases of each. Wish I'd kept more!

Steve,
I started drinking black label when I was about 18, with the 1994 vintage. I have never really been dissapointed with a vintage since. Vintages previous to this must have been pretty good.

Gee I drank a lot of Wynns Black Label CS in the 1990's again bought by the case. It was so good in terms of qulaity, value and consistency.

I dont have much left over after say 1998 vintage in the cellar and certainly the quantities are nowhere near case volumes. Pretty much the same with Bins 28, 128 and 389 as well which all up were our house wines of that decade. Oh those glory days! - am getting too nostalgic, those were the days - better go - am sounding my age!

I dont have a long history of staying with a particular wine, so my "most drunk" is probably Turkey Flat Rose!!

When I was young and silly, Queen adelaide chardonnay. But now Gosset and Pol Roger champagne.
