Before replacing it, it would help to know what your current case gets wrong—weight, insulation, or how the bottles shift in transit. For six-bottle capacity, rigid foam or molded EVA shells tend to hold shape better than soft-sided nylon, while a proper shoulder strap matters once the case is loaded. Check that the dividers fit Burgundy and Riesling bottles, not just Bordeaux. For check-in, look at hard-shell cases with TSA-friendly latches. What kind of travel are you planning, driving or flying?

Thanks ethanthompson, yes you raise the issues of most concern to me. I want it to be able to handle Champagne and Burgundy as well as Bordeaux. This big red thing is actually pretty secure, the only real problem with it is that it has only one set of wheels and is very difficult to lug around at airports. Plus, I don't think I really need more than a six bottle container. This 12 bottle thing is too big.
