By "rule-of-thumb", the wine should already be passed....but, stranger things have happened. So, now you have a few choices. you can keep it sealed as a "conversation piece", or open it up and try it. If the wine is still flavorful, then you can boast it on this forum and dumbfound the rest of us.

Gary what you may have missed are 1) It's a Chablis. A white wine and 2) even more important it's a half bottle. ( 12 Ounces).
