Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a wine rack showing my new design.

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of the wine rack of FIG. 1;

FIG. 3 is a left side elevational view of the wine rack of FIG. 1;

FIG. 4 is a top plan view of the wine rack of FIG. 1; and,

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the wine rack of FIG. 1.

The stippling and shading lines shown in the drawings represent the approximate three-dimensional contour of the design, and are not intended to indicate surface decoration.

The right side elevational view of the design is a mirror image of the left side elevational view, so the right side view has been omitted.

The bottom plan view of the design is identical to the top plan view, so the bottom plan view has been omitted.

Portions of the drawings depicted in broken lines are intended to illustrate the environment of the design for illustrative purposes only, and form no part of the claimed design.

Portions of the wine rack that are not shown in the drawings form no part of the claimed design.

Claims

I claim the ornamental design for a wine rack, as shown and described.
