What wine club is this? I have never been in one. We love Bonanza and just bought a case for $17.00 a bottle delivered. I like the $9.50/bottle you speak of?

Azur Cab from Napa. The 2017 Cab was the best cab I've ever had. The 2018 is exceptional as well.

Left Italy. Right France. Back California.
Spain.

That's a lot of bottles. I'd probably have an entire side for Nebbiolo. Mostly Barbaresco.

let the downvotes rain down, but don't sleep on Aldi.
the best thing about aldi wine (aside from the price) is they have a great "non california" selection from other countries.

While I enjoy Spanish wines very much to me they just aren't quite in the same league as the classic Italian and French wines.

No reason to cellar a wine like this. It all depends on what you like. Buy quality stuff and put that in the cellar. Don’t worry about filling it. It will eventually fill out.

Are we supposed to be impressed by that?

It’s a very nice wine cellar and well engineered.

shite, it's sacrilegious to not have a walk in beer cooler paired with wine cellar...

Nice!
60 Cabs
20 French
20 Spanish
That’s similar to me. Throw in a little Italian and California red blends too.

Italian's are definitely where I need to expand. Admittedly my experience with them is lacking. I suppose this is a good opportunity to change that.

The 3 B’s are a great place to start. Barolo, Barbaresco, and the 3rd escapes me. I drink Barolo the most.

Nice wine room. Wish I liked wine. Seems like a nice thing to get into.
Is that room specially conditioned for wine and all that? I guess it has to be kept at a certain temp yeah?

I can't really help you fill it. I'd rather help you empty it.

If I needed to fill that much space, first I'd sign up at Last Bottle. They have a wine marathon this Thursday and Friday with free shipping even on one bottle. Lots of interesting reds at great prices, from $15 to hundreds. I'd pick up a few cases there.
Then, I'd fill the rest of the space on wine trips to CA or Northwest, Italy, France and/or Spain. I'd do tastings and and ship back cases of wines I like.

I use Last Bottle too. You can find incredible value there. Not just marathons, but daily.
