It has got to taste terrible if not stored correctly. But would you drink it if offered:

Ferdelious · 13 July 2017, 12:23 AM

Nope.

Johny · 13 July 2017, 12:23 AM

yes.

sea-dweller · 13 July 2017, 12:26 AM

No way.

Yzord · 13 July 2017, 12:27 AM

I would try it for sure..perhaps it is THE perfect wine ever.

Magwitch · 13 July 2017, 12:31 AM

If they price it high enough someone will buy it and put it in their safe for an investment.

swils8610 · 13 July 2017, 12:36 AM

Gotta try it!

Nope......heh.

SearChart · 13 July 2017, 12:46 AM

I'd like to give it a try.

Cryten · 13 July 2017, 12:51 AM

I would certainly try it if offered, but I suspect it'll be long past it's best. It'd be a shame to even open the bottles and I'm sure no one will.

AzPaul · 13 July 2017, 01:06 AM

As Navin Johnson once said, "Bring us some fresh wine."

MonBK · 13 July 2017, 01:10 AM

I would try it.

superdog · 13 July 2017, 01:19 AM

Yes please!!

BristolCavendish · 13 July 2017, 01:46 AM

Being a dessert wine, Madeira keeps for a long time due to its inherent sugar content.

That said, the bottles are worth more left unopened. As for sampling, a sip might be interesting for a frame of reference. Not being a Madeira, Sherry or Port drinker myself, I wouldn't be overly interested in polishing off an entire glass.

mjclark32 · 13 July 2017, 02:01 AM

Sure, who's buying?

GradyPhilpott · 13 July 2017, 02:22 AM

I'm not a drinker, but I would taste it if it were offered.

I don't run in such circles, though, so it's not something that would ever happen.

GB-man · 13 July 2017, 02:37 AM

Yes. Probably taste like

but I would certainly roll the dice

RichM · 13 July 2017, 02:45 AM

Only if someone else drinks first.

George Burdell · 13 July 2017, 04:45 AM

Absolutely. Its microbially stable from the hooch and already oxidized. Heck, I'd pay to have someone Coravin me an ounce.

hugs · 13 July 2017, 04:49 AM

I would take a sip if someone was opening it.

If it was my call I don't think the small chance of it having aged well is worth risking whatever it was worth.

wantonebad · 13 July 2017, 05:20 AM

opportunity to taste history, why wouldn't you?

rr-nyc · 13 July 2017, 05:45 AM

If they were offering stats, absolutely. If they were tying to sell the bottles, absolutely not. The "Billionaires Vinegar " keeps popping into my head

Exactly, I would without fear or favour.

tyler1980 · 13 July 2017, 06:00 AM

bottled in 1798 and rebottled in 1888 makes it non OEM or a franken wine at best. I would pass

Kneecough · 13 July 2017, 06:06 AM

Sure, why not?

incontrol · 13 July 2017, 11:57 AM

How could I pass on this? It couldn't hurt too bad!

Recorked isn't uncommon for old wine. Rebottled would make me wonder wtf

BNA/LION · 13 July 2017, 12:43 PM
