I am not so lucky in that all my wine is in Section B, including some (but not the majority) in a room right next to the room where the fire broke out. Worse I only have a nominal amount of insurance on the wine stored there.
We'll have to see how bad it is - it could take as long as three weeks to open Section B - and I've been warned that nothing may be recoverable. But the messages are not nuanced, as everyone in Section A got a very blunt message at the weekend.
After a few days of worry, and even wondering whether I should stop bothering with this wine thing full stop (I would probably be quite happy with a Eurocave of decent Champagne and a few reasonably priced table wines bought from wine shops as needed). But I am now prepared for the worst, still have quite a lot of wine in storage elsewhere (younger on the whole, but most of the very top old Madeiras too). I was also cheered up greatly by a wonderful meal with good friends last night. But sorry if I can't supply every old bottle promised for future offlines.
