Claim:
An enclosure for containing at least one bottle therein, the enclosure comprising in combination: an outer box substantially completely enclosing an interior space; said outer box having an orthorhombic shape including a substantially planar front wall opposite a substantially planar rear wall, with side walls extending between said front wall and said rear wall, and with upper and lower end walls adapted to enclose upper and lower ends of said box; a lower retainer adapted to reside within said interior space adjacent said lower end wall; said lower retainer having a top deck held by said lower retainer in a position spaced from said lower end; said top deck including at least one hole therein, said hole adapted to receive a bottle having a similar diameter to said at least one hole; an upper retainer adapted to reside within said interior space adjacent said upper end wall; said upper retainer having a main panel held by said upper retainer in a position spaced from said upper wall; said main panel having at least one hole therein, said hole adapted to receive a neck of the bottle passing therethrough; said upper retainer including at least one spacing panel abutting said main panel, said at least one spacing panel adapted to space said main panel sufficiently from said outer box to keep an upper end of the bottle out of contact with said outer box, said at least one spacing panel abutting said main panel at a point on said main panel closer to said hole in said main panel than to edges of said main panel; and said at least one spacing panel connected on at least a portion thereof to a front panel which is connected in fixed position to at least a portion of said main panel, said front panel extending from said main panel non-parallel with said main panel, and said at least one spacing panel oriented non-parallel with both said main panel and said front panel, and said at least one spacing panel oriented non-perpendicular to said front panel, such that said at least one spacing panel is to some extent held in position relative to said main panel by said front panel therebetween.
