I have a bottle of wine and don't know anything about it. It's called COSCANO and the bottle says "CEVIN s.p.a. PONTEDERA-ITALIA" "Vino Rosso" "Da Tavoca". Please help me learn the age and value of this bottle.

If there is not a year on the bottle, then it's called a non-vintage wine. Though my Italian is not too great and I am unfamiliar with the producer, it sounds to me like you have an inexpensive bottle of Rosso table wine. Sorry.

winecollector is right. although i am not familiar with this particular wine, "da tavoca" should in fact be "da tavola" -- which tells you it is a table wine, MOST of which are cheap and inexpensive (excepting the super-Tuscans, but that's another story).

oh.. and by the way, and as should be obvious to you as you have it, rosso means RED in Italian!
