Net minus one, the past 24 hours.

Progress.

[Martin_Petersen]

A great month when it comes to cellar reduction due to no purchases, some tastings done and some auction sales - net is minus 191 for the month.
Total since my quest started is minus 419 bottles in 15 months

Not much development here, but tasty stuff coming in (Lauer 2024) …

September: 13 out, 12 in - net 1 decrease. Yay! Got some Tidings, Desire Lines and purchased some interesting old bottles (1982 Ridge York Creek among other things) from a random acquaintance. That was it.

Q3: 39 out, 36 in - net 3 decrease, 1/month. Finally a quarterly reduction again, it’s been years (I think). Now going for the annual, but that’s a stretch - more than a case in the hole right now.

October: 16 out, 30 in - net 14 increase. Decisively off the wagon. Our Finger Lakes trip set the tone, and the Sandar & Hem Fall release capped it off. Completely out of room now.

November: In +29(!). Out -36. Net -7. YTD +47

Good negative month. December could be tricky with a trip to Germany very soon.

[David_Glasser]

After last month’s debacle, I figured I better start attending the monthly meetings again.

November: 13 out, 15 in - net 2 increase. Not bad for a Bedrock release month. I guess you can fit always a couple more…

Though I feel like I’m forgetting something

[Brian_Pinci]

Did better than I thought:
In - 18
Out - 26

[Martin_Petersen]

A less successful November due to the arrival of allocations from some of the few favorites I still buy, ending the month with a total of +26. But after all, the trend is my friend and it’s heading the right direction

[Dav3_Dyr0ff]

-4 for November. Not what I’d hoped, but shrinkage is shrinkage!

+106 YTD. Need to at least get that down to double digits before year-end.
