Yes, thats probably a good move - but as I always say, the devil is in the details. Dont know which labels you will be cellaring but as you surely know, some wines are not meant for keeping and as we get towards the end of 2010, many 2006 labels - even if from this special vintage, warrant drinking right away.

If you care to share the list I will gladly give you my 2 cents....
