I recently acquired a bottle of what appears to be very old wine. The name is
Marques de Riscal
Elciego (Alava)
Reserva 1937
The bottle itself is unopened, and was apparently stored upside-down because I was told to continue storing it in this fashion.
There is a fine wire mesh surrounding the bottle,which passes through a lead cap on the top of the bottle, and is secured at the bottom of the bottle with a small metal seal.
The paper label is in excellent shape, and is easily readable.
Any Ideas???????

Ideas? Yep, sorry to say that the wine died about 50 years ago. Makes a nice conversation piece now.
