Default Kelman Bottles

Ran over at lunchtime and picked up 24 cases of bottles. 12 Clear Burgundy Style and 12 Green Bordeaux Style, both are punted bottles. The price incase you are wondering.....$6.00 per case for brand new bottles. Whoo Hoooo

I thought it was a pretty good price for new bottles. This week I'll start going through my stash downstairs and get rid of all the odd bottles. Trying to get everything as uniform as possible and at this price, I don't think I'll be looking for any used bottles for a while unless they are my own.

Thanks Rocky and Doug!

Doug, do they have a store there or do you have to know someone?

No store. It is the actual plant where they manufacture the bottles. I called the # on the website and then connected to sales (ext 204 I believe). After that just went over. I did tell the guy I spoke with that I would be over today so he was expecting me. Depending on what you are interested in he may need to see what is in stock. They had a fire in one of the furnaces last year and they are still trying to get it back functioning.

They were out of the clear bordeaux bottles with a punt. Didn't check to see if they had any unpunted bottles.
