Many of us have deep cellars in a few regions, and diversity across a lot of regions, though maybe not so deep.
What I wonder is whether you have a particular region or variety that you particularly like, but which you have not adequately collected.
For me, it is Pacific NW.
I have maybe 6 bottles from Washington and Oregon. I know there are great Cabs, Syrahs, and PN, but I just never got started buying from there before the lists got backlogged. e.g. I have a couple bottles of Bionic Frog, but it has been a few years on the Cayuse waiting list and I’m still waiting.
And with OR PN, I do not even know where to begin. Someone like Ken Wright has a vineyard portfolio that rivals Siduri in CA. It’s just too much to choose from.
A little bit more Loire (red & white) would be nice, but I’m already working on fixnig that. Otherwise my cellar is exactly the way I want it to be, especially since in the last few years I have been diligent in filling the holes I noticed.
Over the next year I am trying to focus on Cru Beaujolais and German Riesling. I need to get bettet at ignoring the red burg offers that show up in my mailbox.
Aged wines from “all” areas except Piedmont (this area I have already);
Bordeaux
Germany (Rieslings)
Burgundy (red and white)
Rhone (north and south)
Champagne
Port
In addition: More whites from Loire, and more Champagne
…and I was thinking of slowing down on the purchases…
