Well I'm moving to a new house and am curious for some recommendations on how best to move my wine. Currently I have a 5 gallon full carboy that's ready to bottle, a 5 gallon carboy that should probably be reracked off the lees but is only a month old, and a 3/1 gallon batch that is also only a month old and should probably be reracked.
I'm thinking: bottle the wine that's ready because I'm assuming it'll be easier to move 25 bottles than moving a big carboy. Rerack both other batches so any sediment doesn't get back into suspension.
Any thoughts on this or recommendations for how to move these? I guess just very carefully in my own car..maybe wrapped in a bunch of blankets?
