Wine Racks Blog

So, I recently saw the most charming movie. “Ratatouille” is a movie about a rat who wants to become a chef in Paris. It’s very funny, even though rats in a kitchen usually aren’t funny. And don’t worry - they address those issues during the movie. It’s quite realistic in that way. Any way, Remy is a rat who longs to be more than a rat, and his love for french food and wine becomes quite infectious (like the bubonic plague, which is something that rats can bring to a kitchen).

Anyway, after the movie, I got to thinking - What sort of wine rack would Remy have, if he was large enough to use a wine rack. This is a question I often ask after seeing movies - I like to match movie characters with a wine rack suiting their style. It makes movies much more interesting. For instance, I saw The Watchman and I couldn’t help but start thinking about what sort of wine rack Dr. Manhattan would have at home. Then I realized he would probably just make his own. Plus, I don’t think he drinks wine.

Back to Ratatouille! After much deliberation, I figured that Remy would have an old fashioned french wine cart. So, I looked around and found one! I wanted to put a picture of Remy with the wine rack, but I don’t want to get in trouble with Disney - so I made my own artistic impression!

Isn’t it cute! I don’t advocate having ferrets in the kitchen, in my opinion they’re just rats with furry tails, but if you put a beret on one, it’s just adorable. This rolling french wine cart has a natural wood top, and holds over a dozen bottles of wine. I also love the fact that it rolls, because that means you can roll it wherever the party is. You know how sometimes, people at a party always seem to be in the other room. Then you go in there, and everybody goes back to a different room! How strange! This way, you can roll the wine wherever you go, ensuring that you’ll always be at the center of attention. It’s almost like being a bartender, but it’s easier.

See any good movies, or wine racks, or wine racks in movies lately? Let me know!
