Total on CT is 166. But that’s overstated because the majority of that is wines where I had a small taste at a tasting, or a glass at a restaurant (I’ve become reasonably diligent about putting up notes, at least on non-plonk). How many bottles bottles did I actually open from my cellar, or share with someone else? Probably somewhere in the range of 50-80.
No exact idea.
Overall made 7 tastings from my cellar (app. 160 bts),
participated in app. 20 other tastings (app. 400 wines by the glass),
visited app. 35 wine-makers (app 300-400 wines tasted),
and consumed app. 300+ bottles at home, often with friends …
… ah, and on vacation …(?) maybe 40-50 bottles …
At home - 547 bottles
At restaurants - 30 bottles? Didn’t count all of them.
At other people’s homes - don’t know.
At wineries - don’t know
At tastings - don’t know. No full bottles, maybe 50 tastes per, since some of them were smaller tastings
Gave away - 6 bottles
Dumped - at least 10 bottles
CT tells me that I logged 218 “consumptions” during 2019. This should include anything I drank from my cellar, unless I forgot to log it, but would not include any other sources.
Drank - 140 bottles
Gifted/Donated - 42 bottles (a couple of charity wine basket raffles that fellow Berserkers supported!!) Thank you!
Sold - 2 bottles (first bottles I have ever sold or traded)
Drank 129 yay!
Gifted 23 good!
Missing 1 sad!
Premoxed 2 boo!
Corked 1 hiss!
Kind of happy the flawed ratio is pretty low. Might have stronger words otherwise than boo/hiss.
Interesting, I haven’t looked at my consumption over time before. According to CT it was 161 which is almost double what I consumed on average over the previous 8 years. I have no idea why I drank so much last year but I’ll have to try to keep it up!
I Don’t know exactly how many I popped, but I generally drink 1/2 bottle per evening, approx 2-2.5 glasses, perhaps a bit more on weekends and entertaining/restaurants. I’m likely in the 225+ range. For me. My wife pops her own stuff, thinks my stuff generally is dreg.
