Flawed Spoiled Wine

I have a question and I’m not too sure if you can help me.

What do you do when you buy a 200+ bottle of wine from the wine retailer you have purchased wine from for 10 years, and you get a flawed, spoiled wine?

Thanks for you help!

CK...

If we get a few more people participating, we could build a theme around a particular kind of wine, region and make this happen in the next few weeks.

I hope a few more people post their ideas
