I was just en route to putting your wine somewhere safe when there was an insistent banging at the front door. Then someone yelled through the letterbox "Help! Help!". I ran and opened the door as fast as I could, your wine in hand. My neighbour from three doors down explained that the drains had burst and there was a river of sewage running down the street. I ran...

You were burgled and the only thing they were interested in was the wine as it was so expensive!

How can you 'accidentally' drink a bottle of wine? Do you not mean you thought it was one of yours so you drank it.
I would just say ''Thanks for your gift of wine I really enjoyed it, what was it ? I'd like to get another bottle.''

Oh trust me Eddie, it is easy to accidentally drink a bottle of wine.

Gness, give them a ring and say "It was really good of you to leave that wine, and I agree having tried it it would be perfect for Christmas day. Unfortunately, I forgot to write the name of it down, can you let me know what it was please and I'll pick up a bottle or two, together with a box of Resolve and some humble pie".

queenofmean

The carpet drank it...

Barmaid

Or you could go on the offensive and say "you fool, leaving me in charge of wine is like putting the fox in charge of the henhouse or King Herod in charge of a creche. I necked it. Now what was it again? And that will teach you."
