Wine storage in Brisbane or Gold Coast

Post by Andrew P »

I'm looking to cellar 15 cases for 3-4 years somewhere on the Gold Coast or Brisbane. I've only managed to find one place (on the gold coast) and they charge $2 per bottle each year, plus $4 per case on delivery.

Does this sound about right (given prices are likely to be higher up here due to warmer climate)? If not can anyone recommend a good cellar?

Hi Andrew,

Below are two sites you could try. I don't know their charges though.

http://www.nationalstorage.com.au/Locat ... yId=106510

http://www.wineaway.com.au/

Hope it helps.

Hello Andrew

I have no connection with Wineaway other than being a very satisfied customer for a number of years. They are located at Bowen Hills, not far from the Royal Brisbane Hospital.

Email me and I'll send you the list of their charges for 2007.

prices sound about right , but look into the extra costs , also look at things like is the wine held in your name , these are the things that can make or break you . How secure is the site , can you get acesess on short notice . If you take a bottle out of a case , on what basis do they charge you for the remander of the wine .

Thanks Ray, Maria and Peter,

I've found a couple of good cellars and now it's a matter of selecting between the two.

Cheers

Andrew
