I have a bottle of 1986 pinot noir bottled by Far Niente Winery Oakville Ca. Could you please tell me how much this bottle is worth. Thank You

Not much, if it is drinkable at all. Pull the cork and have a back-up bottle available. Cheers,

Bucko

Hvac to just go a bit further. The pinots made in Calif, even by the top-end producers, are not like their counter-parts in Burgandy that have tremendous aging potential. It's best to drink them 5 years from the vintage date and even the best no longer than 8 years. Bucko tolt' you like it be. The wine is probably dead and except for the pretty lable, not worth much.
