What's The Oldest Bottle In Your Cellar?

1987 Quintarelli Ca del Merlo

[ToddFrench]

1971 Miguel Torres Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Coronas Reserva Mas La Plana - was supposed to open it at Mark and Brad’s Spanish event, but we couldn’t go, so I’m waiting for another opportunity, since it is a birth year wine for Brad and me.

Once that’s gone, I jump way up to 1990, with Chave Hermitage and Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Chapelle

This:
Red wine, the rest unknown.

Oldest known bottle: 1889 Gruaud Larose
Oldest I’ve owned besides the one pictured: 1846 Madeira Bual

That’s awesome! Where’d you get that thing?? Any idea at all where it’s from?

Obscure Paris auction. No idea where it is from, but the style of the bottle is typical from the second half of the 18th century. And I presume it is French.

Thanks, good info.

It’s for the chopping block, soon, as a friend’s father was born in 1930, and my friend wants the bottle to open for him.
