[Growwine] Unusual topic, but

[Vernon Speer]

Margaret,

I'm in mid-Missouri, U.S.A and just a hobbiest so buy them by the case 
or two through my local wine maker hobby shop as needed... and... 
they're the ugly green bottles that look identical to all the cheap 
champagne on the market. When I get all the bugs worked out, I'll try 
to find a bottle that's unique to the product, but for now, I'm still 
experimenting and these are convenient... I'm paying about $20 per case 
of 750s.

I'm showing Richards as carrying champagne glass, with a caveat that 
items vary by location....I suspect these guys run trucks between their 
warehouses to balance their stock and should be able to accommodate you 
if you're not in a hurry...I'm just guessing though... #2 looks 
interesting... the p/u is probably code for punt bottom

Turn on the charm and give 'em a call!!

Hi Vernon!  We have been trying to find champagne bottles and have been 
told
by Richards Packaging they are impossible to get in our area (southern
Ontario).  Where do you get yours?  Ciao, Margaret
