Have abut 100 bottles of alcohol left over from a party, I know I can store the whiskey, rum and vodka but what about white wine, rosè and prosecco? No idea if they will go off.

Thanks
 
Thank you. OK I will find out from the wife, they're just standard ones from asda nothing special - I remember the prosecco is Martini with a cork, the white wine is a screw top, and the rosè is a cork too. I'll get the names asap.


You sound like you may also be able to confirm that I'll be fine storing Jameson, Smirnoff and Bacardi in the shed (so temp could range from a cold winter to a hot summer) I initially assumed they'd be fine for a few years as they are spirits.
 
Ok the wines are:

Jacobs creek chardonnay 2017
Les Estimates Cotes de Thau Rose 2017
Martini Prosecco

And will be left in the shed with outdoor temp :)

Thanks

Gotcha. Sounds fairly standard. Happy to look at specific wines but basically these are likely the best they'll be now. Will probably hold together for up to a year and then start to decline. For wine storage consistent temperature is best, ideally around 13 degrees. However if it's a couple of degrees higher and constant that's better than it fluctuating all the time.
Spirits will be fine. 37.5%+ alc means they're much more resilient.

Ah OK thank you, I can maybe try to keep our side unit at a consistent temp for the wines but if they'll only last a year then I might just flog them off instead of keeping them.

Thank you :)

The Jacob's Crack Chard should last a bit longer before going downhill. Probably fine for a couple of years.
The other two I would go with what I said above.

I did know a girl who had a Eurocave (£2k ish wine fridge) that she kept a load of old JC wines in for some bizarre reason. They were all dead.

Use someone who does sale or return next time :).

Cheers :) will do next time - think we can return to asda if it's not been too long.
 
It was for my son's first birthday rather than a wedding so not many people drink, however I still have to make sure each table is catered for.
22 tables of 10 people so 1 bottle of each per table plus an extra 5 bottles. So 27 litres of vodka, jamesons & bacardi, and same for the wines and prosecco.

Better to have more than not enough. Fine having extra spirits as they will keep for the next function.
 
We have huge families. First birthday party's are similar to wedding party's (although there were 500 at our wedding so no where near as big as that) where it's a big hall with food and alcohol and dancing. We hired entertainers for the kids too which was nice. Cake, camera men, balloons, decorations etc. All in all about 7k+ I reckon, tried to talk the wife out of it but I had no chance haha.
 
Ermm what's so insane about having a bottle of each type for every table and a few spares? Everyone can have whatever they like, and we save any extras for the next party.

Unlimited draft and bottle of beer were included in the venue price. As well as water and soft drinks.
