I've started to compile a spreadsheet of the wines I have, how much I paid for them, when they should be ready to drink, and any scores that I know they've received. Now that I have a working list I'll be better about adding new wines in and noting things like whether they were a gift or not. If the wine didn't have a price on the bottle I went buy what I could find for it online.
I also have a document that I made of the 2000 Bordeaux Wines I purchased with their WS notes, and how much I paid for them which was substantially less than the list prices in some cases.
Many of them are ready to drink now. Then I have a smattering of wines that can be opened over the next six years. The Bordeauxs are still pretty much infants 10-15 years from now.
I'm going to go through my wine fridge and my dessert wine rack and add those to the spreadsheet too.
