Moselland Riesling wine - cat bottles


Two Moselland Riesling wine cat bottles just came out ... turquoise and coral ... and I picked 'em up today.


I have 18 now ... all still sealed. As far as I know, I'm just missing two ... a clear turquoise one and a clear pink one issued about five years ago.


Last year I finally bought a bottle to drink. It was a reisling and so-so.

I like the coral one. You have a lot of the cat wine bottles.

I've seen them before but didn't know that there were that many different types. You have so many!

Never seem them before. Does they come in a different colour every year? Like we did have for years: Art Wine - with one artist each year to decorate the label of "This years selscted Art Wine"

I have 22 of these bottles (no duplicates). I collect them without the labels and wine. At present I am trying to get a list of the colors and the years they were issued and you seem to have the biggest collection with the info I'm seeking. Would you be willing to send me a list the colors you have and the years they were issued. I know I am missing the very first one which was black without a collar so I know there are at least 23 in total. I have the following:
Dark Red, green, blue; Clear yellow, turquoise, pink, clear; Metallic coral, turquoise, gold, silver, blue, dark purple, light purple, green, chartreuse; Frosted white (with collar), black (with collar), green, orange, red and solid white.
Would love to hear from you.

I am so happy to see many other "happy cat" wine collectors! I have around 25 different colours, and is also trying to get a comprehensive list of all the colours. I have several doubles that I'm willing to trade or sell. I know I still need the frosted orange and milk (snow) white ones. If any of you are interested, let me know :) I am in London, Ontario. silly.jen@hotmail.com

PS. this years colours are frosted salmon pink and purple - they are on the shelves right now - grab them if you want them :) They make awesome Christmas gifts too

I have 14 of them. Some of them are going for 45.00 on ebay. I would like to find out the total number that have been released and what year. From what I have read online, they issue different colours every year to different countries.
